Abstract
In this paper, we present the implementation and analysis of our testbed considering the link quality window size (LQWS) parameter of optimized link state routing (OLSR) and better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking (B.A.T.M.A.N.) protocols. We investigate the effect of mobility in the throughput of a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET). The mobile nodes move toward the destination at a regular speed. When the mobile nodes arrive at the corner, they stop for about three seconds. In our experiments, we consider two cases: only one node is moving (mobile node)and two nodes (intermediate nodes) are moving at the same time. We assess the performance of our testbed in terms of throughput, round trip time, jitter and packet loss. From our experiments, we found that throughput of TCP was improved by reducing LQWS.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
