Abstract :
Ad hoc networks (MANET) frequently changing network topology using multi-hop wireless links without existing network infrastructure. Anycast routing is important for Ad hoc network in terms of resource, robustness and efficiency when mobility is high and links get disconnected frequently. Performance of two anycast based reactive routing protocols for mobile Ad hoc networks-Anycast Routing based Dynamic Source Routing (ARDSR) and Anycast routing protocol based on AODV (A-AODV) is evaluated. Performance is evaluated with respect to fraction of packets delivered, end-to-end delay, routing load and energy consumption for given traffic and mobility model. Relative strength, weakness and applicability of each anycast based reactive routing protocol to diverse situations are studied and evaluated.
