摘要:A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANETs) is a kind of wireless ad-hoc network, and is a self- configuring network of mobile nodes where the mobile nodes are free to move randomly, thus making the network topology dynamic. Various routing protocols have been designed which aims at establishment of correct and efficient routes between a pair of mobile nodes. This study is a comparison of two routing protocols proposed for mobile ad-hoc networks. The protocols are: Ad-hoc On demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Protocol Routing (ZRP). The performance of the protocols are analyzed in terms of throughput, average end-to-end delay and normalized routing load which shall provide an insight about the sensitivity of the protocols. Simulation based analysis of the protocols have been carried out using NS-2, an open source simulator.
