Description: Abstract ─ Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) routing is
challenged by power and bandwidth constraints as well as
frequent topology changes to which it must adapt to and
converge quickly. Energy efficient routing protocols play an
important role in MANET. This paper presents an innova-
tive energy aware routing protocol for wireless ad hoc net-
work called Energy Efficient Ad hoc On Demand Multipath
Distance Vector (E2
AOMDV) routing protocol. Ad hoc On
Demand Multipath Distance Vector (AOMDV) routing pro-
tocol presents the advantage of achieving faster and efficient
recovery from node failures. We propose the inclusion of
Energy Aware (EA) selection mechanism and the maximal
nodal surplus energy estimation in the AOMDV routing
protocol to improve its energy performance in mobile ad
hoc networks. The ‘readiness’ concept of EA Selection me-
chanism prolongs the network lifetime and the maximal
