Abstract

In present scenario, choosing the routing protocol is vital task in mobile ad-hoc networks. These type of networks is collection of nodes which are connected dynamically and situated without using any infrastructure. There are various types of routing protocols have been implemented such as OLSR, DSR, DYMO, AODV, DSDV, BATMAN etc. These are implemented in specific simulation environments. In this research, an analysis has been done to choose the appropriate routing protocol. A comparison based on relative results is prepared for DYMO, OLSR and DSR protocol. A sample network is simulated to try these three routing protocols over a set of parameters. DYMO and DSR protocols found more difficult and OLSR protocol has better performance in comparison of both DYMO and DSR. This simulation has been carried out using OMNeT++ simulation framework
