摘要:Ad-hoc on demand distance vector routing protocol is specially designed for mobile ad-hoc networks with reduced overhead using Expanding Ring Search technique (ERS). But energy consumption should also be considered in MANET due to battery constrain of nodes. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient route discovery process for AODV based on ERS .Our approach saves energy of nodes by avoiding the redundant rebroadcasting of the route request packets. It not only reduces the energy-consumption but also reduces the routing overhead occurs due to mobility between nodes.
