"Selecting a routing strategy for your ad hoc network"

Recently, Ad Hoc networks are getting more popularity since their ease of deployment. These networks do not have any pre-existing infrastructures and users of such a network are relieved from a centralized administration. Since an Ad Hoc network consists of wireless host which may be mobile, its topology changes dynamically. Such an environment requires special routing protocols which are different with those used in fixed networks. A variety of routing protocols capable of adapting Ad Hoc networks topologies have been proposed. This thesis presents studying of five famous wireless Ad Hoc routing protocols which are WRP, DSR, FSR, LAR and DREAM. Simulation results have been used to compare efficiency and effectiveness of above-mentioned routing protocols. The Simulation results show that on-demand protocols are better suited for mobile Ad Hoc networks. They generate less control overhead messages and manage the mobility of nodes more efficiently. However they produce extra delay in acquiring routes which reduces their efficiency in delivering real-time traffic. Also it can be seen that all of the protocols operates much better with the group mobility model than with the random waypoint model.
