Abstract

In MANET, without the aid of any established infrastructure or centralized administration, a temporary network needs to be established whenever a node tries to send data to another node. Each node in MANET acts as an end system and also as a router for all other nodes in the system. In this paper we propose a new approach for routing data packets in MANET. The scheme is based on a specific criterion among the nodes, called “pheromone”. Data packets are routed based on this “pheromone” value. In this paper, we have introduced modified ant colony based routing algorithm in MANET and this approach will reduce the computational overhead, end to end delay to a lot extent, increasing the packet delivery fraction rate
