A Study on the Behavior of MANET Routing Protocols With Varying Densities and Dynamic Mobility Patterns
S Deepa, D.M Kadhar Nawaz · International Journal of Computer Applications · 2010
Mobility and node density are the two major factors which has much influence on the performance of any routing protocol of mobile ad hoc network. Several previous works [1,2,3,4] highlighted this fact. In this paper, we will evaluate some of the widely used MANET routing protocols with different mobility and network density. The proposed evaluation will be made on MANET routing protocols DSDV, DSR and AODV which are readily available in network simulatorns2. The performance of these protocols will be measured with suitable metrics.
