Abstract

Mobile Ad hoc Network or MANET is a collection of heterogeneous mobile nodes and is infrastructure-less by choice or by default. MANET is prone to confront a lot of challenges in designing a proper Quality of Service (QoS) model where transmission reliability has an important contrtibution. This chapter proposes an optimised message transmission scheme inspired by Artificial Bee Colony Optimisation (ABCO) technique. In this proposed scheme, QoS parameters that have been taken into consideration are throughput, delay, packet loss, and bandwidth utilisation. Here, three agents, namely message selection agent, message forwarding agent, and QoS factor calculating agent, have been introduced to govern and optimise the whole message transmission scheme. Through this method, a significant improvement in QoS factor can be achieved in comparison with the existing schemes. QualNet simulator has been used to evaluate the proposed concept.
