Maintenance of the cache consistency is a complicated issue in the wireless mobile environment. Caching of frequently accessed data items on the node can reduce the bandwidth requirement of the mobile node environment. In this paper, we present a new technique called Modified Energy Efficient Cache Invalidation Algorithm (MEECIA) especially to reduce the uplink bandwidth consumption in the wireless ad-hoc network, by choosing following modes: Slow, Fast, Super-fast. The mode is selected based on threshold specified for time and the number of node requesting the updated data to other node. Simulation results demonstrate that our algorithm is efficient in improving mobile caching, reducing the communication bandwidth and also efficiently utilizing the energy in ad-hoc network. Compared to the previously reported cache based Invalidation Report (IR), our scheme can significantly improve the performance in terms of energy consumption and reduce the query latency in ad-hoc network.
