This paper describes an adaptive routing mechanismbased on the energy consumption speed of nodes foron-demand routing protocols in mobile ad-hoc networks.Our algorithm allows a fairly energy consumption duringroute establishment by building routes that are lowercongested than the others. To do this, the congestion informationis obtained from a computed cost that dependsmainly on the energy consumption speed. The main featuresof our mechanism is that it is simple, ef.cient and it canbe applied for any on-demand routing protocol. We evaluatethrough simulations the performance of the AODV routingprotocol including our scheme (resulting to a newrouting protocol that we call AODV-energ) and we compareit with the basic AODV routing protocol. Results showthat our new concept outperforms the basic AODV. Indeed,our scheme reduces for more than 20 % the totalenergy consumption and decreases the mean delay speciallyfor high load networks while achieving a good packetdelivery ratio. Moreover, the simplicity of the mechanism enablesthe design of cheap implementations.
