摘要：A collection of autonomous systems which are dynamically connected with each other via wireless links are known as Mobile ad hoc network (MANET). As MANET is an infrastructure less network without any centralized control of distribution of resources, the problems of network congestion, traffic load and depletion of energy of nodes are very often. Because of these problems the performance of network degrades and it becomes unstable. Therefore, load balancing among nodes becoming a vital part in MANET now-a-days. To achieve load balancing in MANET the most prominent way is to use multipath routing protocol so that the overloaded traffic is distributed among the multiple paths. In this paper, we approach LBA-AOMDV, an efficient load balancing algorithm using AOMDV (Ad-hoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector) protocol for multipath route discovery and their maintenance. To analyze the performance of load balancing we focused on those nodes which have least load and can give maximum throughput. The simulation results are carried out by using NS-2.35.
