Abstract
Energy consumption is a major concern in most of the present day devices in wireless networks. Especiallyin Ad hoc networks, energy is a limited factor. Random movement in nodes add to the frequent failure ofroutes which adds to the energy consumption in the network. In this paper, a routing protocol is proposedwhich is based on a modification of the conventional DSR (Dynamic Source routing). A comparative
analysis is performed with respect to energy consumption, maximum throughput and delay. The routingprotocols used for reference in this analysis are DSDV, AODV and conventional DSR. Experimental resultsshow that the proposed modified DSR shows a reduced energy consumption, improved rate of maximumthroughput and a reduced delay compared to above mentioned routing protocols.
