Effect of Data Encryption on Wireless Ad Hoc Network Performance

摘要

In this paper we studied various routing algorithms for ad hoc networks to explain why Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) should be chosen over other possible rotuing algorithms. We then the effect of applying encryption over AODV to data payload on different parameters such as delay, queue size, throughput, retransmission attempts, channel back-off etc.
