Abstract

The reactive routing protocols got much significance because of their low storage requirements and high mobility. In this paper, three routing protocols AODV, DSR and DYMO are analyzed and simulation results evaluated on grid-based routing have been presented and compared by using QualNet simulator on the basis of performance metrics such as throughput, average jitter, average end-to-end delay, signals transmitted and ACK packets sent. The grids are distributed that tracks mobile node location in ad-hoc networks. Grid-based routing protocol uses reactive mechanisms to build routing paths. In addition, the grid partitioning of a network naturally aggregates nodes into non-overlapping grid cells. The mobile network can be modeled as a fixed pattern network of occupied grid cells. The grid cells do not move but may change their state between “on” and “off” according to their occupancy. The occupancy of a grid cell depends on not the mobility of nodes but the density of nodes.
