The simulation is conducted with 10

The simulation is conducted with 10 to 50 nodes for
comparing performance of AODV and MEL-AODV
protocol separately. First we evaluated the MEL-AODV
protocol energy saving effect by comparing the nodes
lifetime. Figure 1 has shown 10-50 nodes simulation
result separately under the 1 m/s speed. Every node has
random initial energy. Table II shows that the survival
time of MEL-AODV protocol is higher than AODV. We
also can conclude that the performance of network
lifetime is better by increasing number of nodes because
destination node able to receive higher energy routes thus
energy saving routing protocol has prolonged the node’s
lifetime. Figure 2 shows successful packet delivery ratio
for 10 to 50 nodes. From graphs below, we can make
conclusion that MELAODV has played an important role
in prolonging node’s lifetime and improved the data
