Abstract :
In this paper, we compare the dynamic source routing (DSR) protocol and our energy aware dynamic source routing protocol (EADSR). The implementation of the routing protocols is carried out using the click modular router infrastructure on laptops with wireless Ethernet cards running Linux. We demonstrate the working of both ad hoc routing protocols through our experiments and highlight the energy efficient behavior of EADSR as compared to DSR.
