At present, there is a tremendous growth in Ad-hoc networks, which also covers Flying Ad-Hoc Networks (FANET) with enormous applications. Networks’ lifetime is based on establishing the nodes effectual in order to transmit the data to the target connectivity are a significant factor. Moreover, connectivity can be lost owing to some failures encountered in the node connectivity which leads to disruptions in network operations and network reconfiguration by producing huge energy loss and other losses like network mission failure. Network connectivity is an essential phase in FANET. Flying Ad-Hoc Networks (FANETs) is initially formed as Ad hic network as a baseline for UAVs. This is comparatively a new innovation in the family of networking where requirements vary hugely from conventional networking models like Vehicular Ad Hoc networks and Mobile Ad hoc Networks. In this work, a novel solution for network connectivity problem is generated while failure nodes are considered. The failure node replacement is performed in two phases in this investigation: first one is search of nodes using clustering techniques for broadcasting the packets with Efficient Intelligent Packet Broadcasting Protocol [EIPBP]; the second one is the connectivity restoration using Markov chain based node transition. Performance metrics shows that the anticipated node connectivity shows that the outcomes are globally satisfactory as the PDR is 98.34%. The simulation is carried out in NS-2 environment. Metrics such as Packet delivery ratio, delay were considered here.
