Abstract
A mobile ad hoc network is a collection of mobile nodes which are able to organise by themselves. In MANET a mobile station (MS) can communicate with nodes outside of its transmission range by employing intermediate nodes as relays. To find a path to a specific destination node, the source node broadcast route request packet that are forwarded to all other nodes. A simple flooding scheme is employed in AODV, where every node rebroadcasts these route request packets even if some of its neighbours have already broadcast the requests. So there is redundancy in broadcasting which could potentially leads to high channel contention and collision so the broadcast storm problem will occur in MANET. In order to avoid this broadcast problem different types of techniques was implemented such as simple flooding method, probability based method, area based method, neighbour knowledge based method, efficient and dynamic probabilistic broadcasting methods are used. Instead of power loss it cause link failure then the process of data transfer is terminate and it diminishes the overall the network performances and will cost a large amount of network resources. In this, paper it proposed a new way of broadcasting technique called "Efficient Power Aware broadcasts (EPAB)" to provide an optimal path with suitable bandwidth and battery capacity. EPAB will help in increasing the throughput by decreasing the packet loss due to non-availability of node having enough battery power to retransmit the data packet to next node.
