Abstract

Wireless internet has become popular in recent years due to the tremendous growth in the number of mobile computing devices and high demand for continuous network connectivity regardless of physical locations. In this paper, we investigate the effects of routing protocols on the performance of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) variants in multi-hop wireless networks. Through simulations we study the effects of Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV), Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR), Ad hoc On demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) routing protocols on TCP Tahoe, TCP Reno, TCP Newreno, TCP with Selective Acknowledgment (SACK) option and TCP Vegas. The simulations are carried out for static as well as mobile nodes. The performance metric used is throughput. Another metric, expected throughput is used for the comparison of throughput when nodes are mobile.
