Performance analysis of dynamic source routing protocol

Abstract EN

Routing protocol isthe primary strategy to design any wireless network.

In Mobile Ad Hoc Networksmanyrouting protocols are present for sending packetsfrom source to destination.

Routing protocols in MobileAd HocNetworks (MANETs) arereactive routing protocols, proactive routing protocols and hybrid routing protocols.

Performanceanalysis of differentrouting protocols isthe major stepbefore selecting the routing protocol.

Dynamic SourceRouting (DSR) is an efficient reactiverouting protocol for mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET).

In this paper, the TCP and UDP based on performance analysis wascarried out in Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol with different scenarios by varying the number and speed of mobile nodes and size of the network area using network simulator (ns.35) under different traffic conditions.

The average end to end delay (AED),throughput and packet delivery ratio (PDR) are common measures parameters used for the comparison of performance metrics.

Results of experimental show that the performance of TCP is better than UDP from throughput , but UDP is faster than TCP.
