Comparing the performance of proactive and reactive routing protocol in Mobile Ad-Hoc Network

摘要

Mobile Ad-Hoc network is infastructureless network where nodes are move randomly from one position to another. Routing protocol plays important role in Mobile Ad-Hoc Network. Number of different routing protocols have been proposed amongst them is DSR(Dynamic Source Routing) routing protocol and DSDV(Destination Sequence Distance Vector) routing protocol. In this paper we compare the performance of DSR and DSDV protocol using different network conditions as pause time, time interval using different parameters as end-to-end Delay, Packet delivery fraction, Throughput etc. using Network Simulator (NS2). By analyzing the performance we proposed that DSR protocol outperforms well as compare to DSDV.
