Cross layer based QoS platform for multimedia transmission in MANET

Abstract

Transportable nodes in a healthy and demanding network set-up of Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) are self-governing with self-configurable potential due to high occurrence of topology alteration and changeable rescheduling of the network mechanism during data communication. Due to simplicity of set up, the energetic networking system in MANET is very victorious in conditions where it is complicated to create communications system and infrastructure based network. Numerous routing protocols for MANETs accompanying real time applications have been developed, basic intention being optimal consumption of resource in resource limited situation, least power utilization using limited battery power of the highly short-lived mobile nodes and victorious real time data broadcast within their deadline. This paper presents an efficient Quality of Service architecture using inter layer communication with a highly efficient real time scheduler design at the network layer with improved RMA (Rate Monotonic Algorithm) and EDF(Earliest Deadline First) scheduling that efficiently schedules multiple real time applications without missing any of their deadline. Simulation results in NetSim ver 8 ensures healthier network performance in terms of better jitter, packet delivery ratio and network lifetime when compared with other similar Cross layer based approaches for video file transmission.
