Quality of service performances of three mobile ad hoc network protocols

Summary: | Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) is network without infrastructure, where
every node functions as transmitter, router and data sink. Every node must discover its
local neighbours and through them it will communicate to nodes that are out of its
transmission range. The routing mechanisms in MANET are challenged by the
interaction of three fundamental difficulties such as contention, congestion and node
connectivity. Every ad hoc routing protocol has their own advantages based on the
performances in the network. The thesis proposed to evaluate the Quality of Service
(QoS) performances of three types MANET protocols. The protocols included the
Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), Ad Hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) and
Temporally Ordered Routing Algorithm (TORA) protocol. The analysis had been done
theoretically and through simulation using an Optimized Network Engineering Tools
(OPNET) Modeler. Using OPNET Modeler software, these performances had been
analyzed by the following metrics: packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay, packet
dropped, routing load and end-to-end throughput. |
