A Survey on Issues and Challenges in Congestion Adaptive Routing in Mobile Ad hoc Network
Mobile ad hoc networks is the future wireless communication systems have recently emerged as an important trend. Mobile adhoc network is self-configurable and adaptive. Due to the mobility of nodes, the network congestion occurs and it is difficult to predict load on the network which leads to congestion. Mobile adhoc network suffers from a severe congestion controlling problem due to the nature of shared communication and mobility. Standard TCP controlling mechanism for congestion is not fit to the dynamic changing topology of MANETs. This provides a wide scope of research work in mobile ad hoc network. The purpose of this survey is to study and analyze various issues and challenges in congestion control mechanisms in adaptive routing protocols in Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET).
