| Abstract: |
Ad hoc networks are characterized by multi-hop wireless
connectivity, frequently changing network topology and the need for efficient
dynamic routing proto-cols. We compare the performance of two prominent
ondemand routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks -- Dy-namic Source
Routing (DSR) and Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV). A detailed
simulation modelwith MAC and physical layer models is used to study interlayer
interactions and their performance implications. Wedemonstrate that even
though DSR and AODV share a similar on-demand behavior, the differences in the
protocol me-chanics can lead to significant performance differentials. The
performance differentials are analyzed using varyingnetwork load, mobility and
network size. Based on the observations, we make recommendations about how the
per-formance of either protocol can be improved.
