Abstract: MANETs (Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) are self-configuring network that comprised of mobile nodes having no fixed infrastructure. These devices are dynamic and move freely so that they form varying network topology. The challenge for successful communication is to form an appropriate route to maintain connectivity consistently between mobile nodes having limited battery power. Therefore, MANETs need to have improved network lifetime to perform a streamlined and dynamic routes between multiple mobile nodes. This research focuses on designing a protocol for MANETs which is energy efficient and congestion avoidance between mobile nodes. In this mechanism, two important attributes, i.e., link stability and network lifetime are addressed. We used NS-2 Network Simulator to analyze the performance. The outcome of this simulated demonstration that developed energy aware mechanism is better than the existing EDDSR, MDR and LEAR routing protocols.
