Abstract: In MANET, node within its transmission range can be communicated directly and the nodes that are out of its transmission range may be communicated via other intermediate nodes. The existing popular reactive AOMDV protocol in MANET, suffers routing overhead due to flooding of RREQ and RREP packets. In many cases reactive routing protocol in MANET uses AOMDV for route discovery. A node consumes some energy level for receiving and forwarding data packets. A path loss may happen due to draining of node energy level or node moves out of coverage area. To overcome this drawback we propose a modified AOMDV algorithm, enhanced energy and channel aware load balancing (EECALB-AOMDV) routing protocols that reduces routing overhead by multicasting RREQ packet only to selected neighbour nodes. These neighbour nodes are selected by examining the channel, node energy level and existing load analysis. The proposed algorithm will not only minimise routing overhead, but also establish stable path, that over comes the path loss and also distribute load for multipath, and for efficient transmission between sources to destination.
