LBAMR: A Load Balancing and Asymmetrical Multi-Path Routing

In framework for integrating Internet and MANET, because the equipments in the networks are fixed, there is no need to consider the problem of energy. In MANET (mobile ad hoc network), the energy of the mobile nodes will affect the life time and the performance of the network, so it must consider the load and energy of a node. This paper proposes a new routing method called Load balancing and asymmetrical multi-path routing. It makes the traffic load distribute more evenly and protects the node which has less energy, so it can prolong the life time of the network as long as possible.
