Abstract:
This paper focuses on evaluating some of the routing protocols for the Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) and discusses their abilities to provide advanced Quality of Service (QoS) support in spite of their dynamic nature. Two routing protocols have been extracted to be studied extensively and compared against each other in terms of their performance: the on-demand Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) along with the table-driven Destination-Sequenced Victor (DSDV) routing protocol. The performances are analyzed according to various factors such as network load, mobility, and network size using a set of parameters. The evaluation shows that an on-demand routing protocol is preferable in all routing conditions.
