Abstract: An aplication- aware cross-layer energy-effcient routing scheme (ACER) was presented to minimize the effect of supplt of terminals in ad hoc network composed of smart mobile devices. Features of energy consumption were sensed by application aware energy model with the application monitor and the remaining energy monitor. Stability of network path was monitored by link stability monitoring module in Data link layer. As the scheme used the idea of cross-layer design, network topology information, application-aware information in application layer and link-stability were utilized synthetically to make routing deisions in network layer;Simulations were crried out on NS2 platform. The resuts show that, in the same simulation environment, comparing to other routing protocols, the routing scheme performs more effectively on enbancing energy eficiency, increasing the performance of the network.
