Abstract

MANETs are the wireless media, and it’s infrastructure is changing and dynamic in nature, where we cannot assure that every mobile node will be connected at a given time neither predict the topology or size of the network. On the other hand, as soon as a node joins a MANET, it becomes part of the routing mechanism to exchange messages and performs actively routing tasks, hence there is not a sense of subneting like in wired networks. For this reasons, IP address assignment is a challenge in MANETs, In order to solve this problem many protocols proposed but they increases the control load of the network. Another important issue is frequency partition in the network due to fading channels. Proposed system FAP gives the solutions to these problems. This achieves low control overhead and low latency, resolving all address collisions even in network partition and merging events when compared to other system and also it reduces the rate of address collision and control messages required to allocate unique address to the nodes in the network.
