Abstract

Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks are autonomous and decentralized wireless frameworks. MANETs include mobile nodes that are allowed to move in the network. The load balancing is one of the fields in mobile ad hoc networks that need to be focused upon to improve the performance of the network. If the same path is over utilized for a period, its bandwidth can get used or the energy of the nodes might be drained. This would result in the loss of the data, if data transmission is continued over the same path. This paper takes load balancing of the network into consideration. The load has been monitored by taking into consideration the available bandwidth and packet delivery ratio of the current path, which is being used for data transmission. If the load exceeds the new path is used for packets transmission. The performance of the network was analyzed based on four parameters namely packet delivery ratio, throughput, routing overhead and remaining energy in the network.
