An Efficient Scheme for MANET Domain Formation (ESMDF)

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) has random topology as MANET devices leaving or joining to the network at anytime. The dynamic nature of MANETs makes achieving secrecy, connectivity and high performance, a big challenge and a complex task. In this paper, we proposed an efficient technique for Dynamic construction of large MANET based on division the network into interoperable domains. This technique is a hybrid of centralized and distributed control of packets forwarding that balances power consumption, minimizes the routing tables and improves the security features. The principles of domain formation based on joining adjacent devices into one group which controlled by one capable device called domain controller. The presented scheme enhances the throughput and the stability of large MANET by minimizing the flooding of messages for keeping track of Devices and during the domain formation.
