Abstract
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF PROACTIVE AND REACTIVE ROUTING PROTOCOLS IN MANET
K. Divya* and Dr. B. Srinivasan
ABSTRACT
Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) routing is considered a challenging task because of the unpredictable changes in the network topology due to the absence of any centralized control. This routing has led to the development of several different routing protocols for MANET. Thus, it is hard to decide which of these protocols act better than the others. The objectives of this study are of two folds. First, this study provides a performance comparison of MANET routing protocols in terms of delay, packet lost, throughput, jitter, packet delivery ratio (PDR), and normalized routing load (NRL). Second, this study identifies whether MANET routing protocol has an impact on the artificial disaster and suggests which protocols may perform better. The simulation results show that Destination Sequence Distance Vector (DSDV) protocol provides better throughput and PDR with less jitter, delay and NRL for low or high-traffic load and mobility. However, DSDV still has performance limitations with packet loss parameter. Additionally, the results obtained show that DSDV gives a great improvement for using network resources, especially when the number of connections is high with low mobility.
