Routing Protocol Analysis in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks via Simulation

Over the past decade, there has been an emerging interest in wireless networks, as the cost of mobile devices have increased. Wireless communication has witnessed more rapid growth worldwide compared to its conventional wired counterpart in the past decades due to the volatile use of mobile equipment such as I phones, Smart phones, laptops, etc., and an increase in connection speed. Since its primary introduction, a number of technologies have emerged to improve the experience of wireless communications among which mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an alternative (e.g., WiMAX, WLAN and Wi-Fi).
