Abstract

The research on mobile ad hoc networks is intensively attracted by the research community due to their good characteristic of multi-hop wireless connectivity and energetically altering network topology. It collects infra-structure less mobile nodes building a temporary network without any centralized administration. So far, numbers of ad hoc routing protocols were developed and executed. The simulation work has been performed to access the performance of ad hoc on-demand distance vector routing (AODV), dynamic source routing (DSR) and wireless routing protocol (WRP). Hence, GloMoSim simulator was used to perform the simulations. The author adopted two dissimilar scenarios, namely, 50 and 100 nodes, with rectangular area sizes of 1500 × 1000 and 2000 × 1500 m2, respectively, to estimate the impact of network size on the performances. Simulation findings demonstrated that for definite differentials, WRP shows an enhanced performance than the other two protocols such as DSR and AODV.
