Abstract :
Mobile nodes in a MANET incur much overload having to forward the packets of the adjacent nodes. Each node is expected to behave within the boundaries delineated by the underlying protocol. Each node in a MANET is expected to wait for a pre specified time interval generally termed as the back off interval. This back off interval is supposed to be chosen from a range, at random. But some nodes in an effort to ameliorate their throughput tend to choose non random back off values which are of shorter duration. In this paper a conscious effort has been made to evolve a new concept which could modify the existing 802.11 specification drafted by the IEEE.
