Design and Analysis of a Multipath Routing Protocol to Enhance QoS in MANET

A combination of their ability to adapt to a broad spectrum of applications and their ability for self-organization, mobile ad hoc networks, or MANETs, have attracted much interest. However, the fundamental characteristics of MANETs—such as limited resources and node mobility—present challenges for ensuring reliable communication and maintaining Quality of Service (QoS). The study presents the Multipath Routing Protocol (MRP) designed for enhancing QoS in MANETs with the goal of getting around these issues. The recommended MRP produces multiple inconsistent routes among source and destination nodes using the dynamic topology of MANETs the goals of this multiplepath’s strategy are to enhance throughput, reduce packet loss, improve network reliability, and minimize the effects of node movement and link failure. For determining the most suitable routes for the transfer of data, the protocol utilizes a dynamic routing method that takes into account multiple factors such as node energy levels, bandwidth at hand, and link quality. For the purpose of determining the MRP’s efficiency, thorough simulations have been carried out utilizing an established network simulation environment. There are many QoS measurements that are important, such as packets transferred, received, the proportion of delivered packets of data, and the usual routing load.
