Channel Condition and Mobility Based Choice of Neighbor Node for Routing in MANET

In this paper, the vulnerability and instability of links and nodes in MANETs are shown to be minimized by augmenting problem of reliability pair between two neighboring nodes. Precisely, we address a process of neighbor node selection in MANETs with the help of various models such as node power model, mobility model and differential received signal power model. The models are used to define a metric known as reliability pair factor of reliability pair. The margin over reliability pair factor is assessed through simulation in various network scenarios to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
