Abstract

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is composed of mobile nodes, which do not have any fixed wired communication infrastructure. The protocol called 'Power aware Multiple Quality of Service (QoS) constraints Routing Protocol with Mobility Prediction (PMQRPMP)' is the extension of the existing protocol called 'Multiple QoS constraints Routing Protocol with Mobile Predicting (MQRPMP)'. It adds a power constraint along with QoS constraints mentioned in MQRPMP to select a best routing path among multiple paths between a source and a destination as to increase packet delivery ratio (PDR), reliability and efficiency of mobile communication. It collects the residual battery power of each node for each path; selects a path, which has nodes with good battery power for transmission to satisfy the power constraint. It uses the mobility prediction formula to find the stability of a link between two nodes.
