Performance of Ad-Hoc Network Routing Protocols in Different Network Sizes
Sudheer Kumar, Akhilesh K. Yadav · 2014
Abstract-A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a temporary network that is composed of the mobile devices which communicates through wireless links without any pre-existing infrastructure. Routing is one of the major concerns in the MANET due to its frequent changing topology and the absence of centralized administrator. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of Mobile Ad-Hoc Network Routing Protocols Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), Ad-Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and LAR1 under different performance metrics like Packet Delivery Ratio, Average End-to- End delay and Drop Ratio The performance evaluation is done in different network sizes using Glomosim simulator. The comparison result shows that L A R 1 a n d AODV gives b e t t e r PDR while DSR gives lowest PDR and AODV, DSR gives lowest End to End Delay while LAR1 gives higher Delay. Keywords-
