摘要:Mobile Adhoc Network is characterized by multi-hop wireless connectivity and dynamic topology. The mobile nodes in this network communicate with each other without established infrastructure. Since the wireless links are highly error prone and can go down frequently due to mobility of nodes, therefore, routing in MANET is a critical task due to highly dynamic environment. In this research paper, analysis of two prominent MANET routing protocols has been done by presenting their functionality. An effort has been carried out to do the performance evaluation of MANET protocols using self created network scenario with random way point mobility model. A simulation model with TCP and UDP connections has been developed to study inter-layer interactions and their performance implications. The performance metrics used for analysis are Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and Normalized Routing Load (NRL) with UDP and TCP traffic agents. Based on the observations, recommendations can be made about the significance of either protocol in various situations
