The nodes in mobile ad hoc networks keep on experiencing the link breakages with their neighboring nodes. To maintain the links these nodes execute the route maintenance phase described in reactive routing protocols such as ad hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol. The bad links lead to loss of data in the network. The paper describes the use of cuckoo search optimization algorithm to rebuild the broken route. The performance of the network has been compared to existing scheme based remaining energy, packet delivery ratio and throughput of the network. These parameters have shown an improvement over the existing scheme.
