Abstract

In the proposed Energy Aware Congestion Controlled Cross Layered protocol, a cross layered approach is handled using adhoc on demand distance vector routing protocol for attaining a congestion controlled network. At the Medium Access Control layer, the nodes which possess signal to noise interference ratio requirements are only selected in the network and Shannon’s capacity is found for those selected nodes. Hence at the Medium Access Control layer, only energy constrained nodes are selected. These selected nodes are moved to transport layer using the proposed cross layered approach. At the transport layer, if any congestion is found it can be detected using congestion threshold rate which is calculated using packet loss rate. Based on the congestion threshold rate, a congestion fewer routes can be found out that improves the throughput. Simulation results using NS2 shows improvement in the packet delivery ratio.
