Abstract :
As wireless ad hoc networks grow in size and complexity, the need to study and comprehend the scalability and behavior of these systems and their protocol components becomes essential. This paper presents a comprehensive study on the performance of common MANET (mobile ad hoc network) routing protocols in large-scale networks. The routing protocols used in this study include AODV, DSR, OLSR, and ZRP, which represents a good mix of reactive, proactive and hybrid protocols.
