QoS Issues in MANET: A Comparative Study over Different Routing Protocols

Abstract

MANETs are composed of autonomous nodes that are self-managed without any existing of infrastructure and centralized administration. Therefore, each node operates not only as an end system but also as a router to forward packets for other nodes. For these reasons, the network has a dynamic topology, so nodes can easily join or leave the network at any time. Routing information differentiates these networks from other ad-hoc networks. The study of QoS issues in Mobile Ad-hoc Network is done by simulation in MATLAB that can help in better understanding of the behavior of various routing protocols. This paper is intended to compare QoS parameters of various routing protocols
