Abstract
In Mobile Ad-hoc Network(MANET), mobile nodes are operated by limited batteries. Therefore, it is very important to consume the battery power efficiently to prevent termination of the network. In this paper, we propose Energy-aware Dynamic Source Routing(EDSR) which is based on the Dynamic Source Routing(DSR) to increase the packet transmission and lifetime of the network. If the battery power of a node reaches threshold level, then the node gives up the function of relaying to save battery power except as a source and a destination node. While the conventional DSR doesn't consider the battery consumptions of the nodes, EDSR blocks the nodes from relaying whose battery powers are below the threshold level. Simulation results show the proposed EDSR is more efficient in packet transmission and network lifetime through the balanced battery consumption of the mobile nodes.
