Abstract
Nodes of Mobile ad-hoc network usually use the energy-limited battery. Balanced energy consumptionis important to maintain path's stability. In this paper, we focus on improving the stability of the routing path in mobile ad-hoc networks. For that purpose, we propose a new routing protocol to find the highest minimum node residual energy path among shortest paths. The largest path of minimum value of the remain energy has a longer life than other paths to improve the reliability to data-transmission. Using ns-3 simulator, we show that the proposed routing protocol can provide more long-life stable routing path than AODV and EA-AODV.
