Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are emerging technologies used to transfer data across locations within both infrastructure-less and infrastructure-based network models. To ensure quality communication among mobile devices in various applications, an efficient routing model and an optimal data transfer path are essential, helping to reduce delay and power consumption during transmission. This article focuses on 'A hybrid routing and efficient mobility model with ant optimization' (HEMAOM). HEMAOM introduces a novel hybrid routing approach combined with an energy-efficient optimization model to lower power consumption and improve data transmission. Using an energy model, power usage during data transfer is minimized, boosting overall efficiency. Additionally, an optimization model is developed to identify the best path for data transfer between areas. These processes collectively decrease delay and power consumption, enhancing the communication performance of mobile devices. Compared to state-of-the-art methods like EOMFM, OLSRM, and MPOUA, HEMAOM shows superior performance in energy efficiency and data delivery. The model is implemented using NS3 software, considering parameters such as packet delivery ratio, network throughput, average delay, energy efficiency, and routing overhead.
