Performance Evaluation of AODV Protocol for Single and Multiple Traffic in MANETs Considering Packet Delivery Fraction Parameter

Abstract

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol for single and multiple traffic in MANETs. We investigate and compare the packet delivery fraction (PDF) and throughput. As network simulator, we used ns-3 and we considered random waypoint mobility model for different number of nodes and different maximum speed by sending single and multiple traffic in the network. Simulation results show that the performance of the network is high when the number of nodes is 20 and maximum speed is 6 m/s for single and multiple traffic.
