Performance analysis of AODV routing protocol and its modifications for MANET
Natalia Kurkina, Ján Papaj · 2023
This article includes the research of the MANET networks and the reactive AODV protocol. AODV protocol was improvement using the artificial intelligence clustering algorithms K-means and Dynamic Gaussian Mixture Model. The aim of the study was to investigate these improvements protocols in terms of performance in a MANET environment. In the analysis, it was found that the implementation of the K-means algorithm in the AODV protocol makes it possible to efficiently divide nodes into groups, which led to a reduction in the number of service packets in a network with a large number of nodes. The improvement of the AODV protocol using the GMM algorithm did not lead to an improvement in network performance.
