Performance Analysis of AODV on the Basis of Network Survivability over MANET using NS2

In Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs), mobile devices are equipped with power (energy). In order to utilize this energy equipped devices efficiently for transmission of data packets, many energy aware routing strategies are followed. Effective transmission power control is a critical issue in the design and performance of wireless ad hoc networks. Transmission Power affects the Survivability of the Network. Today, the design of packet radios and protocols for wireless ad hoc networks are primarily based on common-range transmission control. Mobility speed of the nodes and extension of ad hoc network affects the performance as well. In this paper, one of the widely used routing protocol AODV with varying transmission range, mobility speed and number of nodes is analyzed. Data transmitted by a node is received by all the nodes within its communication range. This paper focuses on the analysis of varying the range of the transmission in terms of distance, mobility speed and number of nodes in the network. The proposed work has been simulated using NS2.34.The performance metrics comprises of Network Survivability has been analyzed in this paper.
