Santosh Kmuar, Sanjiv Sharma · International Journal of Computer Applications · 2012
Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) routing protocols performance are perceptive to mobility and scalability of network, therefore, the objectives of paper is to describe mobility models based on mobility matrices class and impact of these metrics on routing performance metrics in MANET.An effort for analyzing derived mobility metrics with direct mobility metrics are considered across mobility models i.e.Random waypoint, Reference Point Group, Manhattan, Freeway in this article.This article focuses impact analysis of mobility models on two prominent reactive routing protocols i.e. ad-hoc on demand distance vector (AODV) and dynamic source routing (DSR) with fixed network size, varying node speed and identical traffic load and also extends an intuitive study to analysis the interplay between mobility patterns and protocols building blocks.
