Studying Mobile Ad-Hoc Network protocols using OPNET

Abstract

Abstract Ad Hoc network is wireless nodes directly communicate with each other without any access point or base station, each node take part to transmit the packet to the destination. Ad Hoc network can be mobile node (MANET) or fixed node (FANET). DSR, AODV and TORA are three different MANET routing protocols. The present study practically afford a comparison between these three protocols in order to analyze their perfomance using OPNET simulator to achieve this experience, this after giving an over view of those three protocols.
