A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes where each node is free to move about arbitrarily. The Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector AODV) routing protocol is one of the well-known and efficient on-demand MANET protocols. AODV currently does not support Quality of Service (QoS) and also has no load balancing mechanism. We propose some enhancements to the AODV protocol to prov...

We present m-limited forwarding, a technique to reduce the cost of disseminating information in a power-constrained environment by limiting the cardinality of the subset of nodes which retransmit a packet. We show how this technique can be used to improve the performance of ad hoc routing protocols. m-AODV applies m-limited forwarding to the AODV routing protocol, and is used for networks with ...

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET’s) have become increasingly popular in infrastructure-less mobile wireless communication system. Nodes of these kinds of networks function as a router which discovers and maintains the route to the other nodes in the networks. Route discovery and packet forwarding operations need an efficient routing protocol. Ad-Hoc on Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol (AODV...

This paper describes an automated, formal and rigorous analysis of the Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol, a popular protocol used in wireless mesh networks. We give a brief overview of a model of AODV implemented in the UPPAAL model checker. It is derived from a process-algebraic model which reflects precisely the intention of AODV and accurately captures the protocol spe...

Security remains as a major concern in the mobile ad hoc networks. This paper presents a new protocol SD-AODV, which is an extension of the exiting protocol AODV. The proposed protocol is made secure and dynamic against three main types of routing attackswormhole attack, byzantine attack and blackhole attack. SD-AODV protocol was evaluated through simulation experiments done on Glomosim and per...

In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become the trend for different types of research and applications. UAVs can accomplish some technical risky tasks while still being safe, mobile, inexpensive to operate. However, need flying ad-hoc networks (FANET) operate in inaccessible or infrastructure-less areas. Subsequently, many military civil applications, are connected ad hoc. FANE...

The aim of this research paper is to simulation and design of wireless network by using NS-2 simulation tool. A Wi-Fi technology is used to analyzing packet flow in UDP and TCP protocol. This paper also analyze packet drop rate in UDP and TCP protocol during wireless data transmission and a brief compare of AODV and DSDV routing protocol. Keywords— LAN, MAN, NS2, AODV, TCP, UDP, WIRELESS.

Recently, Wireless network industry for the ubiquitous generation is growing quickly. Especially, MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) is one of special issues of the networking technology for the ubiquitous environments. Then, many researchers are study MANET for enhanced performance. But many researchers are not focusing on developing routing protocol. In this paper, we proposed enhanced routing pr...

Energy is an important characteristic of Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET). We proposeanEnergy Aware Multipath AODV protocol (EAMAODV) based on AODV. EAMAODV obtains nodes energy by upgrading the route discovery and route maintenance process of AODV. It calculates drop rate derived by routes total hops. Drop threshold is used in deciding the route. Simulation is done using NS-2.35. The results show...

We investigate the use of dominating-set neighbor elimination as an integral part of the distribution of route requests using the Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) protocol as an example of on-demand routing protocols. We use detailed simulations to show that simply applying dominant pruning (DP) to the distribution of route requests in AODV results in pruning too many route requests in t...
