Dynamic Behavior of Bandwidth Control Management in Mobile Ad-Hoc Network
Kumar Manoj, Shipra Sharma, Surinder Pal Singh · 2009
Quality of Service (QoS) support in Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) is a challenging task. The major challenge in ad hoc networks lies in adapting multicast communication to environments, where mobility is unlimited and failures are frequent. Such problems increase the delays and decrease the throughput. To meet these challenges, authors have proposed bandwidth control management (BWCM) model to improve the QoS performance (9) by minimized end-to-end delay. In addition to end-to-end delay, an algorithm for end-to-end bandwidth calculation and allocation has been proposed in the paper. The system performance in various QoS traffic flows and mobility environments have been examined through ns2 simulator.
