Enhanced On-Demand Multipath Routing for Wireless Networks [PDF ebook] 

The Ad-hoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector (AOMDV) routing protocol is widely used in highly dynamic ad-hoc networks because of its generic features. The transmission of reliable energy efficient data is an emerging issue in AOMDV routing as the nodes are prone to link failures and route breaks in highly dynamic ad-hoc networks. In order to eliminate such problems, a novel node disjoint multipath routing protocol called Link Reliable Energy Efficient AOMDV (LR-EE-AOMDV), the extension of a well-known AOMDV, is proposed here to find multiple link reliable energy efficient paths between any source and destination pair for data transmission using metrics such as Path Length, Path-Link Quality Estimator (P-LQE) and a novel Path-Node Energy Estimator (P-NEE).
