Comparative Analysis of Enhanced Routing Protocols for Manets

Abstract

To increase performance in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), this paper presents and assesses two upgraded routing protocols, UAEROR and UAROR, which are built around the PLA-DSR protocol. While UAROR takes mobility speed and direction into account to improve routing performance and node stability, the suggested protocols use sophisticated algorithms for link prediction and topology management. A neighbor discovery approach is introduced by UAEROR to better improve routing and decrease control overhead. These protocols outperform PLA-DSR and UAROR on important network metrics according to the results of the NS2.35 performance study. Throughput, end-to-end latency, packet delivery ratio, network lifespan, energy consumption, and control overhead are some of the metrics that the simulation results compare the proposed protocol against.
