Abstract: The present study has proposed an environment aware routing protocol. Environment awareness is incorporated by assuming that each node has the capability to understand its surrounding environment. As soon as a node smells the non-ideal environment it broadcasts a IN message and all the remaining nodes receiving this message will set the flag field for that node and do not use that node till the flag is reset by OUT message. The performance of this algorithm is analyzed by incorporating environment awareness to the existing protocols like DSR, AODV and NTP. The results indicate that all the algorithms show degraded performance under non-ideal environment and by incorporating awareness, the performance improves by about 10-15%.
