M. Vijayalakshmi, D. Sreenivasa Rao . Quality of Service Optimization of Multicast Routing Protocols in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks: AM Route, PUMA and ODMRP. International Journal of Computer Applications. 130, 1 ( November 2015), 10-14. DOI=10.5120/ijca2015906841
Since the structure is completely mobile, lack of central coordination, multi hop communications and limited resources provided by MANETs, QoS techniques need to be optimize the scare resource. A lot of research has been focused on providing QoS assurance in MANETs. The most important QoS metrics are packet delivery ratio, delay, through put and energy. It is a challenging issue to incorporate QoS to ad-hoc multicasting. In this paper the QoS metrics of multicast routing protocols ODMRP, AM Route and PUMA have been simulated using NS2 and analyzed.
