A Tabu Search Algorithm for Minimum Energy Cooperative Path Problem in Wireless Ad hoc Networks  

Jang, Kil-woong (Department of Data Information, Korea Maritime and Ocean University)
Abstract
This paper proposes a Tabu search algorithm to minimize the required energy to send data between a source and a destination using the cooperative communication in wireless ad hoc networks. As the number of nodes in wireless ad hoc networks increases, the amount of calculation for establishing the path between nodes would be too much increased. To obtain the optimal cooperative path within a reasonable computation time, we propose a new Tabu search algorithm for a high-density wireless network. In order to make a search more efficient, we propose some efficient neighborhoods generating operations of the Tabu search algorithm. We evaluate those performances through some experiments in terms of the minimum energy required to send data between a source and a destination as well as the execution time of the proposed algorithm. The comparison results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other existing algorithms.
