| Abstract | Mobile Ad Hoc Networks are standalone networks that are combined with the fixed infrastructure network to create an Ad Hoc/Infrastructured environment. This environment consists of multiple gateways that act as entry/exit points for the traffic flowing between the MANET and fixed infrastructure network. As, there are multiple gateways, therefore, there is an option to select one of the gateway from all the available gateways based on some criterion. This research proposes a solution other than hop count to select multiple gateways in such an environment. The proposed solution considers the load on the gateway as the criterion for selection in which the gateway with lighter load gets to be selected. Furthermore, it is compared with the hop count variation based on the mobility in the Mobile Ad Hoc Network. The results show that the proposed solution performs better as compared to the hop count variation in terms of average end-to-end delay but suffers in case of the number of packets delivered to the destination as the protocol overhead for the proposed scheme is higher |
