An ad hoc network is a mobile wireless network that has no fixed access point or centralized infrastructure. Each node in the network functions as a mobile router of data packets for other nodes and should maintain the network routes for long standing which is not possible due to limited battery source. Also, due to node mobility, link failures in such networks are very frequent and render certain standard protocols inefficient resulting in wastage of power and loss in throughput. The power

The power consumption can be achieved by modifying algorithms such as cryptographic algorithms,Routing algorithms, Multicast Algorithms, Energy Efficient Algorithms and Power Consumption Techniques in High Performance Computing, Compression and decompression algorithms, minimizing link failure algorithms, and by power control algorithms. In this work, we have proposed a new algorithm for minimization of power consumption in Ad hoc networks. The performance of the proposed model is analyzed and it is observed that, information could be sent with security consuminglesscomputational power, thereby increasing the battery life.
