Parma Nand, S.C. Sharma . Comparative Study and Performance Analysis of FSR, ZRP and AODV Routing Protocols for MANET. International Conference and Workshop on Emerging Trends in Technology. ICWET, 2 (None 2011), 14-19.
A mobile adhoc network (MANET) is autonomous, self-organizing and self-configuring network with the capability of rapid deployment in response to application needs. Each host is equipped with a CSMA/CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) transceiver. The mobile characteristic of mobile network creates the scenario of multihop, where the packets originated from the source host are relayed by several intermediate hosts before reaching the destination. Routing is the process of finding a path from a source to destination among randomly distributed routers. In this paper hybrid routing protocol called Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP), Fisheye State Routing Protocol (FSR) and Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance-Vector Protocol (AODV) are examined. The comparative characteristic study and performance analysis is presented using performance metrics throughput, end-to-end delay packet delivery ratio is presented using network simulator Qualnet 5.0.2.
