Performance Evaluation of AODV, DSDV and DSR Routing Protocols using NS-2 Simulator
Anuja Thakur, Sharda Prasad Patel, Ashok Kumar Verma · 2014
MANET stands for Mobile Ad-hoc network, in which mobile nodes are connected with each other through wireless connection. In this paper we are analyzing the performance of three routing protocols AODV (Ad hoc OnDemand Distance Vector Routing), DSR (Dynamic Source Routing) and DSDV (Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector routing). Comparison of these wireless multi -hop routing protocols, which will be based on the performance metrics, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End to End delay and Throughput, with varying the number of nodes and speed. Simulation of these protocols provides the r esults which shows better performance of a protocol under a particular situation. The simulation is carried out using Network Simulator, due to its open source si mplicity and free availability.
