Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are nowadays implemented in so many fields. In order to guarantee an optimum use of this technology, one need to test different routing protocols performances. This paper evaluates ad hoc on demand distance vector protocol (AODV), dynamic source routing protocol (DSR)'s and Dynamic MANET On Demand (DYMO) performances for IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee. The evaluation is based on network throughput, average end to end delay and average jitter. Various simulation scenarios are simulated with varying various properties. The network simulator QUALNET (7.4) is used. From the detailed simulation results and analysis, one can excavate the routing protocol that performs better depending on the number of nodes.
