Performance of AODV, DSDV and DSR protocols in mobile wireless mesh networks

A Mobile Wireless Mesh Network (MWMN) has found its progress and interest in current research. Recently AMWMN has been proposed, which appears to be a promising technology. Owing to the advantages of AMWMN, we analyze the performance of AMWMN with the three protocols Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing, Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) routing and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). Network Simulator is used for such a simulation analysis. The performance is compared using parameters like Packet Delivery Ratio, Packet Loss Ratio and Delay. We rate the protocols to find the protocol that suits best for routing in AMWMN.
