Abstract
Energy aware routing protocol plays an important role in the performance of mobile ad hoc networks because mobile hosts in such networks are usually battery-operated. In this paper, based on TORA, we present an energy-aware routing protocol E-TORA. E-TORA selects routes according to hop count and residual energy of nodes. The nodes that have more energy have more probability chosen by E-TORA. Simulation results comparing with TORA in NS-2 show that E-TORA can balance effectively energy consumption of each node and increase evidently the lifetime of the network.
