Network security and performance are significant topics discussed in academic and Industrial research. Every application depends on the performance and efficiency of the network. Routing protocols and mechanisms play an essential role. AODV routing protocol is considered standard in many aspects, primarily due to the increasing efficiency requirements in various applications. There are different approaches in the literature trying to improve the performance. Some studies considered multiple parameters such as density and mobility of the data nodes. This research study evaluates the two critical parameters that contribute to the overall efficiency and performance of the network – throughput and route resilience. A new version of enhanced AODV is proposed in this paper that uses an iterative approach to check for each parameter and adjust the values accordingly until the required threshold level of efficiency is reached. The solution is explained in different categories pertaining to each network parameter. The proposed algorithm is simulated on a network tool, and the results show that the enhanced version of the routing protocol is promising and can be further extended to introduce new modes for higher efficiency and lower power consumption.
