Abstract

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent complex distributed systems that comprise wireless mobile nodes which can dynamically self-organize into arbitrary and temporary, �ad-hoc� network topologies. This allows people and devices to seamlessly internetwork in areas with no pre-existing communication infrastructure. One interesting research area in MANET is routing. Routing in the MANETs is a challenging task and has received a tremendous amount of attention from researchers. This has led to development of many different routing protocols for MANETs. A mobile node is a collection point in the network which uses a particular protocol to forward data from source to destination. The nodes are free to move about and organize themselves into a network. The requirement of routing protocol is to send and receive information among the nodes with best suited path with the minimum delay. Correct and efficient route establishment between a pair of nodes is the primary goal of routing protocol. This paper is a simulation based analysis of Ad hoc on demand Distance Vector (AODV). The mobility models used in this work is Random Waypoint using network simulation tool NS2. The results presented in this work illustrate the performance of AODV routing protocols in an ad hoc environment.
