In this paper, we attempt to elongate the network lifetime by balancing energy usage, namely, allocating packets via multiple paths proportionally to the energy metric of each path. We propose the static and dynamic strategies of collecting energy metric values and allocating packets, and apply them to AOMDV. Performance comparisons of the proposed methods and original AOMDV are carried out in simulation...
