Abstract
No infrastructure, no centralized administration and self-configuration are the main characteristics of MANETs. The primary motivation of MANET deployment is to increase portability, mobility and flexibility. However, this mobility causes an unpredictable change in topology and makes routing more difficult. Many routing algorithms have been proposed and tested over the last few years in order to provide an efficient routing in Ad Hoc networks. In this paper we will show our conducted study with AODV and DSR routing protocols. The performance of routing protocols have been evaluated carefully by analyzing the effects of changing network parameters such as Traffic load and pause time for four performance metrics: packet delivery ratio, throughput, end- to- end delay and normalized routing load. All the simulation work has been conducted in NS2. Our simulation results show that AODV gives better performance in all designed simulation models in terms of packets delivery ratio, throughput, end-to-end delay and normalized routing load
