AODV Based Congestion Control Protocols: Review
(IJCSIT, 2014) Bhatia, Bandana; Sood, Neha
Ad- hoc network is defined as the network in which the users communicate with each other by forming a temporary network without any centralized administration. Here each node acts both as a host as well as a router. They have highly deployable, dynamic and self-configurable topologies. Various routing protocols are defined for MANETs. These protocols may follow proactive, reactive or hybrid approach. Due to many number of nodes transmitting packets over the network, the chances of losing the packets over the network increases to a great extent. Also, with the increase in size of data packets, the congestion over the network increases which may lead to packet loses. The existing routing protocols for MANETs do not support congestion control as they are not congestion adaptive. There are many proposed protocols that are congestion adaptive and deals with the congestion over the network. This paper discusses congestion control protocols in MANETs. Also, three congestion control protocols, EDAODV, AODV-I and CRP, are discussed. Simulation results are gathered for AODV by varying the number of nodes and size of the data packets for four performance metrics, namely, throughput, routing overhead, packet delivery ratio and end-to-end delay.
Effect of improved IEEE 802.11 DCF on the performance of manets
(Central University of Punjab, 2014) Hans, Shifali; Sood, Neha
Wireless networks have become the most crucial aspect of the today's wireless communication and information exchange. The rapid advancements in the wireless networking technologies have drastically modified our communication and networking world and have led us to the new direction of 'Infrastructure-less networking i.e. Mobile ad hoc Networks'. Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are the wireless infrastructure less networks that do not require any sort of central access point. Nodes in MANETs are connected by the wireless links and they are free to move arbitrarily in any direction. The attractive features of MANETs help to set up a network in emergency situations where the infrastructure is not available or not possible. Even though MANETs have emerged to be attractive, and they hold great promises for our future, but there are several challenges that need to be addressed. The wireless medium is the open shareable; so many-a-times nodes compete among themselves for the medium access, and the conflict arises. In order to resolve the medium contention among nodes there are medium access control techniques. IEEE 802.11 DCF is the de-facto medium access protocol. However there are some problems in IEEE 802.11 DCF which need to be attended for the better MANET performance. The objective of the dissertation work is to study the IEEE 802.11 DCF performance. The performance of 802.11 have been deduced and analysed by running a simulation in NS2 and then have been comparing to the performance of the modified IEEE 802.11 DCF with AODV and DSR routing protocol.
Performance evaluation of AODV based congestion control protocols in manet
(Central University of Punjab, 2014) Bhatia, Bandana; Sood, Neha
The network in which the users communicate with each other by forming a temporary network without any centralized administration is known as ad hoc network. Every node in ad hoc network acts both as a host as well as a router. The topology of these networks is highly deployable, dynamic and self-configurable. Because of the dynamic topology of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), routing is an extremely challenging task in them. For ensuring reliable and efficient routing in MANETs, different routing protocols are defined. These routing protocols may follow proactive, reactive or hybrid approach. As many number of mobile nodes are transmitting the packets over the network, the chances of losing the packets over the network increases to a great extent due to link failures or may be due to congestion over the network because of large traffic flowing over the network. Also, when the size of data packets increases, it may lead to the congestion over the network which ultimately leads to the loss of packets. The existing routing protocols for MANETs do not support congestion control as they are not congestion adaptive. Many authors have proposed protocols based on Ad hoc On demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol (AODV) which are congestion adaptive and deal with the congestion over the network. This dissertation work discusses the congestion control protocols in MANETs and focuses on two congestion control protocols, AODV-I and EDAODV. Simulation results are gathered for AODV, AODV-I and EDAODV by varying the number of nodes and size of the data packets for four performance metrics, namely, routing overhead, throughput, end- to-end delay and packet delivery ratio (PDR).
