Fuzzy-Controlled Power-Aware Routing Protocol (FPRP) for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

In multi-hop wireless ad-hoc networks, designing energy-efficient routing protocols is critical since nodes are power-constrained. However, it is also an inherently hard problem due to two important factors: First, the nodes may be mobile, demanding the energy-efficient routing protocol to be fully distributed and adaptive to the current states of nodes; second, the wireless links may be uni-directional due to asymmetric power configurations of adjacent nodes.
