Simulation-Based Packet Delivery Performance Evaluation with Different Parameters in Flying Ad-Hoc Network (FANET) Using OLSR

Abstract

The article presents the results of experimental study, conducted to determine UAV ad hoc network parameters providing the probability of link connectivity guaranteeing PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio) not less than 90% in the given area. For the research purpose the network structure imitation model was built in ns-2. OLSR is used as a routing protocol to discover paths between the nodes. The dependence of the nodes connectivity on such network parameters as the nodes number and transmission range is determined.
