ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF SERVICE (QoS) FOR RELIABLE AD HOC NETWORK USING LINK PREDICTION ALGORITHM

ABSTRACT

The mobile or the wireless adhoc network is a framework utilizing the nodes or the devices that are mobile to develop a potent network that does not rely on any infrastructure.The nodes are never stationary, they roam freely and extend communication with the nearby device over the wireless medium, without a need for a central body to control their actions. Frequent changes in network topology due to mobility and limited battery power of the mobile devices are the key challenges in the adhoc networks that affect the performance of the network. One of the greatest problems is the issue of a link failure and availability of future route causing packets drop and requires retransmission, thus affecting performance and quality of service. In this paper, an analytical approach is proposed in finding the availability of future routes. Availability of a route in future mainly depends on the availability of links between the nodes forming the route.
