Abstract
Due to mobility of nodes in ad hoc networks, the most challenging issue is to design and to make sound analysis of a routing protocol that determines its robustness to deliver packets in low routing packet overhead. In this paper, we thoroughly analyzed the Adaptive Monitor Based Routing (AMBR) protocol by varying different parameters that affect a routing protocol to measure its performance. Analysis shows that it requires less routing control overhead comparing with other prevalent routing protocols. An improved analytical model is also presented in this paper. All these analyses firmly prove that AMBR is a sound and robust protocol in terms of flooding, routing overhead and hence, enhances reliability
Highlights
An ad hoc network is a class of wireless systems that consists of independent mobile nodes communicating with each other over wireless links, without any static infrastructure such as base stations [1]
In order to analyze the performance of the proposed Adaptive Monitor Based Routing (AMBR) protocol, we run the simulation under the NS-2 testbed with a Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) wireless extension
From the graph it can be understood that the routing packet overhead of AODV, DSDV and AMBR increases as network size increases but increasing rate in the case of AODV and DSDV is much higher than the AMBR
Summary
An ad hoc network is a class of wireless systems that consists of independent mobile nodes communicating with each other over wireless links, without any static infrastructure such as base stations [1]. Changing topology and lack of centralized control make the design of an adaptive distributed routing protocol challenging [1]. Due to the limited spectrum, user’s mobility and power constraints, routing remains a challenge, in wireless communication systems such as ad hoc networks. Several other challenges complicate routing, including scalability, routing efficiency, adaptation to wireless networks of various densities, and distribution [3]. AMBR discovers and maintains routes in hierarchical and distributed fashion and locally repairs the broken link.
