On the impact of Transport Layer mechanisms on routing protocols in MANETS
Anum Zaman, Sameer Qazi · 2013
Wireless Ad hoc Networks have gained huge popularity due to the fact that the initial setup cost of decentralized networks with respect to centralized networks is negligible. Both Routing Layer and Transport Layer protocols have been proposed for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks to optimize the hop by hop path discovery and end to end data delivery. This paper discusses the performance analysis of wireless ad hoc routing protocols when used with different Transport layer mechanisms.
