Deployment of multimedia applications warrants provisioning of Quality of Service (QoS) in MANET. However, limited battery power, other resource constraints and mobility of nodes make QoS provisioning difficult to achieve in MANET. This difficulty can be overcome by using a cross-layer approach for routing. In [1] Patil et al., proposed a cross-layer routing protocol named Cost Based Power Aware Cross Layer - AODV (CPACL-AODV) which overcomes the limitation of battery power of nodes. Though many similar energy efficient and cross-layer routing protocols have been proposed for MANET, none of them handles QoS. A novel MANET routing protocol, Type of Service, Power and Bandwidth Aware AODV (TSPBA-AODV), which overcomes resource constraints and simultaneously provides QoS guarantees using a cross-layer approach, is proposed in this paper. In addition the effect of variation in nodes' mobility on performance of TSPBA-AODV is compared with that of CPACL-AODV [1] for two different types of network traffic. As shown by the results of simulations performed, TSPBA-AODV performs better than CPACL-AODV for MANET in which nodes move with small speeds (speeds up to 40 Km/hr approx.). In addition the effect of variation in data sending rate of nodes on performance of the protocols is also studied. As shown by the results of simulations performed, TSPBA-AODV performs better than CPACL-AODV for all variations in data sending rate of nodes.
