Survey of Energy Efficient Strategies in Wireless Ad Hoc Network

wireless links. Nodes in a MANET have limited transmission range; communication is achieved by making use of nodes to forward packets to other nodes, which thereby have to operate as routers. Finding a path between two communication end points in an Ad Hoc network is important. It presents a survey on AODV (Ad Hoc on Demand Distance Vector) is a reactive protocol, it using the Sequence number for loop prevention. The DSDV (Destination Sequenced Distance Vector) routing protocol, each node periodically transmits updates includes its own sequences number, routing table updates and nodes also send for important link changes. Battery power is crucial parameter in the algorithm design to increase lifetime of nodes in the network. In addition to maximizing the lifetime, it is preferable to distribute the bandwidth in all the nodes.
