Mobility based comparison of routing protocols in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

Mobile wireless nodes without any controlling stations forms a Mobile Ad-hoc Network. Routing in MANET is an important issue to be considered. There are various routing protocols are developed for MANET. Selection of good protocol yield very good results. Another important consideration is the mobility models for the node movement. In this paper the routing protocols are compared based on various mobility models. As the mobility model changes the delay of the protocol also varies. End to end delay is taken as the performance measure.
