About

Mallikarjuna Gowda is a researcher focused on advancing wireless communication and autonomous systems, with key contributions in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and military robotics. His most cited work, "Optimization in the Ad Hoc On‐Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol" (2022, 9 citations), addresses the critical challenge of efficient information management in MANETs, where devices form self-repairing, peer-to-peer connections essential for applications like road safety. This work proposes optimizations to enhance routing reliability in dynamic environments. Gowda also made notable strides in defense technology with his 2020 paper "Design and development of combat robot for military applications" (7 citations), where he engineered a combat robot to assist commandos in counter-terrorism operations. The robot integrates weaponry systems for versatile field tasks, demonstrating practical innovation in autonomous threat handling. Though his citation counts reflect a growing but focused impact, Gowda’s research bridges theoretical network optimization and real-world robotic deployment, offering valuable insights for students and engineers working on resilient communication protocols and tactical robotics. His work underscores the importance of adaptive systems in both civilian and military contexts.
