Energy-Balanced Routing Algorithm Based on Ant Colony Optimization for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

The mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a multi-hop, non-central network composed of mobile terminals with self-organizing features. Aiming at the problem of extra energy consumption caused by node motion in MANETs, this paper proposes an improved energy and mobility ant colony optimization (IEMACO) ro...
