Analysis of QoS based Routing Algorithm in MANET Using Fuzzy logic

Abstract

A mobile adhoc network (MANET) is a self-configuring infra- structure less network. The emergence of real-time applications such as multimedia services, disaster recovery etc., and the widespread use of wireless and mobile devices has generated the need to provide quality-of-service (QoS) support in MANET. But QoS provisioning in MANETs is a very challenging problem. This is because of wireless multi-hop communication, limited battery power, each device in a MANET is free to move independently in any direction, range of mobile devices as well as the absence of a central coordination authority. Therefore, an effort has been done to create a new QOS based Stable Energy Aware Ad hoc Routing protocol (QSEAAR). To analyze overall performance of QSEAAR, the inputs are fed into an efficient system based on fuzzy logic theory to choose the adaptive values of the protocol depending on the two inputs.
