Analysis of QoS Parameter in AODV a DSR in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Providing QoS in the context of Ad Hoc networks includes a very wide field of application from the perspective of every level of the architecture in the network. Saying It in another way, It is possible to speak about QoS when a network is capable of guaranteeing a trustworthy communication in both extremes, between any couple of the network nodes by means of an efficient Management and administration of the resources that allows a suitable differentiation of services in agreement with the characteristics and demands of every single application.The principal objective of this article is the analysis of the quality parameters of service that protocols of routering reagents such as AODV and DSR give in the Ad Hoc mobile Networks; all of this is supported by the simulator ns-2. Here were going to analyze the behavior of some other parameters like effective channel, loss of packages and latency in the protocols of routering. Were going to show you which protocol presents better characteristics of Quality of Service (QoS) in the MANET networks

Behavior of Ad Hoc routing protocols, analyzed for emergency and rescue scenarios, on a real urban area

A mobile Ad Hoc network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes that can dynamically configure a network without a fixed infrastructure or central administration. This makes it ideal for emergency and rescue scenarios, where sharing information is essential and should occur as soon as possible. This article discusses which of the routing strategies for mobile MANETs: proactive, reactive or hierarchical, has a better performance in such scenarios. By selecting a real urban area for the emergency and rescue scenario, we calculated the density of nodes and the mobility model needed for the validation study of AODV, DSDV and CBRP in the routing model. The NS2 simulator has been used for our study. We also show that the hierarchical routing strategies are better suited for this type of scenarios

Assessment of troughput performance under NS2 in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs)

Providing QoS in the context of Ad Hoc networks includes a very wide field of application from the perspective of every level of the architecture in the network.In order for simulation studies to be useful, it is very important that the simulation results match as closely as possible with the test bed results. In this Paper, we study the throughput performance (parameter QoS) in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) and compares emulated test bed results with simulation results from NS2 (Network Simulator). The performance of the Mobile Ad Hoc Networks is very sensitive to the number of users and the offered load. When the number of users/offered load is high then the collisions increase resulting in larger wastage of the medium and lowering overall throughput. The aim of this research is to compare the throughput of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks using three different scenarios: 97, 100 and 120 users (nodes) using simulator NS2. By analyzing the graphs in MANETs, it is concluded When the number of users o nodes is increased beyond the certain limit, throughput decreases

We show a cluster based routing protocol in order to improve the convergence of the clusters and of the network it is proposed to use a backup cluster head. The use of a event discrete simulator is used for the implementation and the simulation of a hierarchical routing protocol called the Backup Cluster Head Protocol (BCHP). Finally it is shown that the BCHP protocol improves the convergence and availability of the network through a comparative analysis with the Ad Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV)[1] routing protocol and Cluster Based Routing Protocol (CBRP)[2

Un modelo de encaminamiento en las redes móviles ad hoc con QoS

En la última década ha aumentado en gran medida el interés por las redes móviles Ad Hoc. La naturaleza dinámica y sin infraestructura de estas redes, exige un nuevo conjunto de algoritmos y estrategias para proporcionar un servicio de comunicación fiable extremo a extremo. En el contexto de las redes móviles Ad Hoc, el encaminamiento surge como una de las áreas más interesantes para transmitir información desde una fuente hasta un destino, con la calidad de servicio de extremo a extremo. Debido a las restricciones inherentes a las redes móviles, los modelos de encaminamiento tradicionales sobre los que se fundamentan las redes fijas, no son aplicables a las redes móviles Ad Hoc. Como resultado, el encaminamiento en redes móviles Ad Hoc ha gozado de una gran atención durante los últimos años. Esto ha llevado al acrecentamiento de numerosos protocolos de encaminamiento, tratando de cubrir con cada uno de ellos las necesidades de los diferentes tipos de escenarios. En consecuencia, se hace imprescindible estudiar el comportamiento de estos protocolos bajo configuraciones de red variadas, con el fin de ofrecer un mejor encaminamiento respecto a los existentes. El presente trabajo de investigación muestra precisamente una solución de encaminamiento en las redes móviles Ad Hoc. Dicha solución se basa en el mejoramiento de un algoritmo de agrupamiento y la creación de un modelo de encaminamiento; es decir, un modelo que involucra la optimización de un protocolo de enrutamiento apoyado de un mecanismo de agrupación. El algoritmo mejorado, denominado GMWCA (Group Management Weighted Clustering Algorithm) y basado en el WCA (Weighted Clustering Algorithm), permite calcular el mejor número y tamaño de grupos en la red. Con esta mejora se evitan constantes reagrupaciones y que los jefes de clústeres tengan más tiempo de vida intra-clúster y por ende una estabilidad en la comunicación inter-clúster. En la tesis se detallan las ventajas de nuestro algoritmo en relación a otras propuestas bajo WCA. El protocolo de enrutamiento Ad Hoc propuesto, denominado QoS Group Cluster Based Routing Protocol (QoSG-CBRP), utiliza como estrategia el empleo de clúster y jerarquías apoyada en el algoritmo de agrupamiento. Cada clúster tiene un jefe de clúster (JC), quien administra la información de enrutamiento y la envía al destino cuando esta fuera de su área de cobertura. Para evitar que haya constantes reagrupamientos y llamados al algoritmo de agrupamiento se consideró agregarle un jefe de cluster de soporte (JCS), el que asume las funciones del JC, siempre y cuando este haya roto el enlace con los otros nodos comunes del clúster por razones de alejamiento o por desgaste de batería. Matemáticamente y a nivel de algoritmo se han demostrado las mejoras del modelo propuesto, el cual ha involucrado el mejoramiento a nivel de algoritmo de clustering y del protocolo de enrutamiento. El protocolo QoSG-CBRP, se ha implementado en la herramienta de simulación Network Simulator 2 (NS2), con la finalidad de ser comparado con el protocolo de enrutamiento jerárquico Cluster Based Routing Protocol (CBRP) y con un protocolo de enrutamiento Ad Hoc reactivo denominado Ad Hoc On Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV). Estos protocolos fueron elegidos por ser los que mejor comportamiento presentaron dentro de sus categorías. Además de ofrecer un panorama general de los actuales protocolos de encaminamiento en redes Ad Hoc, este proyecto presenta un procedimiento integral para el análisis de capacidades de la propuesta del nuevo protocolo con respecto a otros, sobre redes que tienen un alto número de nodos. Estas prestaciones se miden en base al concepto de eficiencia de encaminamiento bajo parámetros de calidad de servicio (QoS), permitiendo establecer el camino más corto posible entre un nodo origen y un nodo destino. Con ese fin se han realizado simulaciones con diversos escenarios para responder a los objetivos de la tesis. La conclusiones derivadas del análisis de los resultados permiten evaluar cualitativamente las capacidades que presenta el protocolo dentro del modelo propuesto, al mismo tiempo que avizora un atractivo panorama en líneas futuras de investigación. ABSTRACT In the past decade, the interest in mobile Ad Hoc networks has greatly increased. The dynamic nature of these networks without infrastructure requires a new set of algorithms and strategies to provide a reliable end-to-end communication service. In the context of mobile Ad Hoc networks, routing emerges as one of the most interesting areas for transmitting information from a source to a destination, with the quality of service from end-to-end. Due to the constraints of mobile networks, traditional routing models that are based on fixed networks are not applicable to Ad Hoc mobile networks. As a result, the routing in mobile Ad Hoc networks has experienced great attention in recent years. This has led to the enhancement of many routing protocols, trying to cover with each one of them, the needs of different types of scenarios. Consequently, it is essential to study the behavior of these protocols under various network configurations, in order to provide a better routing scheme. Precisely, the present research shows a routing solution in mobile Ad Hoc networks. This solution is based on the improvement of a clustering algorithm, and the creation of a routing model, ie a model that involves optimizing a routing protocol with the support of a grouping mechanism. The improved algorithm called GMWCA (Group Management Weighted Clustering Algorithm) and based on the WCA (Weighted Clustering Algorithm), allows to calculate the best number and size of groups in the network. With this enhancement, constant regroupings are prevented and cluster heads are living longer intra-cluster lives and therefore stability in inter-cluster communication. The thesis details the advantages of our algorithm in relation to other proposals under WCA. The Ad Hoc routing protocol proposed, called QoS Group Cluster Based Routing Protocol (QoSG-CBRP), uses a cluster-employment strategy and hierarchies supported by the clustering algorithm. Each cluster has a cluster head (JC), who manages the routing information and sends it to the destination when is out of your coverage area. To avoid constant rearrangements and clustering algorithm calls, adding a support cluster head (JCS) was considered. The JCS assumes the role of the JC as long as JC has broken the link with the other nodes in the cluster for common restraining reasons or battery wear. Mathematically and at an algorithm level, the improvements of the proposed model have been showed, this has involved the improvement level clustering algorithm and the routing protocol. QoSG-CBRP protocol has been implemented in the simulation tool Network Simulator 2 (NS2), in order to be compared with the hierarchical routing protocol Cluster Based Routing Protocol (CBRP) and with the reactive routing protocol Ad Hoc On Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV). These protocols were chosen because they showed the best individual performance in their categories. In addition to providing an overview of existing routing protocols in Ad Hoc networks, this project presents a comprehensive procedure for capacity analysis of the proposed new protocol with respect to others on networks that have a high number of nodes. These benefits are measured based on the concept of routing efficiency under the quality of service (QoS) parameters, thus allowing for the shortest possible path between a source node and a destination node. To meet the objectives of the thesis, simulations have been performed with different scenarios. The conclusions derived from the analysis of the results to assess qualitatively the protocol capabilities presented in the proposed model, while an attractive scenario for future research appears
