Abstract
Mobile ad hoc networks are the most widespread self-organizing and readily constructed networks for quick communication in emergency circumstances. Addressing the Hidden and Exposed node terminals in a Mobile Ad hoc Network reduces network performance. Several research projects have been proposed by incorporating the Directional antenna within the MAC layer capabilities can help with the concealed and exposed nodes problem. Initially, the Omni antenna was utilized in MANET for transmission; however, it was unable to accommodate extensive range, power optimization, or interference. This research paper explores the use of beam sector directional antennas in physical and routing protocols to address hidden and exposed node concerns in the MAC layer. This study introduced a unique routing strategy that addresses hidden and exposed nodes by creating a route table based on the beam sector antenna orientation. This proposed antenna is divided into eight sectors based on the location of the neighbor node, and the respective sector transmitter or receiver will transmit or receive the packet. This antenna also determines the receiver direction based on the location of the next hope received and focuses the packet floating. This technique supports the Hidden and Exposed node problem in MANET while also improving routing efficiency and power optimization. This study was simulated using Network simulation, and the results showed a 25% to 35% improvement in total MANET Network performance, a 30% to 40% increase in metric value, and an overall antenna gain of 18.5 dBi in the beam sector antenna.
