摘要:Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is a kind of wireless network which can be deployed anywhere, anytime. Its applications extend its wings to larger extent and there exists a vast research scope for ensuring Quality of Service (QoS). In this research work, an Enhanced (Medium Access Control) MAC with Delay Aware Multipath Routing (EMAC � DAMR) Mechanism for Quality of Service in MANETs has been proposed. Certain enhancements are made with the conventional MAC in terms of remaining time, packet transmission delay and usage of Erlang factor. Simulations are conducted using NS3, and the performance metrics such as throughput, packet delivery ratio, delay, overhead and packets drop are taken into account for analysing the performance of the EMAC-DAMR. EMAC-DAMR has been compared with existing routing solutions and the results significantly prove that EMAC-DAMR attains better throughput and packet delivery ratio. Also, EMAC-DAMR reduces the packet delay, number of packets drop and overhead packets.
