Paper Title
Evaluating The Performance Of Manet Protocols Considering Various Parameters
Abstract
MANET Mobile ad-hoc networks - are fully distributed networks that comprise of mobile nodes resulting in
dynamic topology. Since it is infrastructure less architecture, nodes have to cooperate in order to provide the necessary
network functionality. MANET technology can provide an really flexible method for establishing communications for
military battlefield operations or other scenarios requiring rapidly-deployable communications with survivable, efficient
dynamic networking. There are three types of routing protocols in MANET such as Proactive, Reactive, and Hybrid. In this
paper, we report results of NS2 simulation of three important routing protocols: AODV, AOMDV, DSR (Proactive
Protocols), DSDV (Reactive Protocol) .We have extended the work done in previous paper and also have analyzed
performance using Packet delivery ratio, average throughput and average end to end delay, and also their varying mobility.
For node movement, a popular model, random waypoint is considered while Constant Bit Rate (CBR) traffic pattern is
assumed.
