Performance Evaluation Of Aodv, Dsr, Dsdv Mobile Ad-Hoc Protocols On Different Scenarios: An Analytical Review
Mohit Dua · International Journal of Advances in Computing and Information Technology · 2012
A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] is a collection of wireless mobile nodes forming a temporary network without using any centralized access point or administration. MANET protocols have to face high challenges due to dynamically changing topologies, low transmission power and asymmetric links of network. A suitable and effective routing mechanism helps to extend the successful deployment of mobile ad-hoc networks. An attempt has been made to compare the performance of two On-demand reactive routing protocols namely AODV and DSR which works on gateway discovery algorithms and a proactive routing protocol namely DSDV which works on an algorithm to constantly update network topology information available to all nodes for MANETs on different scenarios. Comparison is made on the basis throughput, packet loss, packet delivery ratio and end-to-end delay, and the simulator used is NS-2 [2]. In the previous papers, only one type of scenario was taken while simulating the results. In our paper we have taken all the scenarios for simulation and then analyzed the results.
