Abstract: | Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) have evolved in the last years into standards in the communication world. By definition, they
do not need any network infrastructure to facilitate communication between participating nodes. Therefore, MANETs are dealing
with new challenges in the context of ad hoc routing. Simulation techniques are one of the fundamental methodologies to support
the protocol engineering process, especially in the early stages of ad hoc network protocol design. In this paper, we set
out common criteria that may serve as guidelines for meaningful simulative evaluations of ad hoc routing protocols. We present
typical and necessary measures for ad hoc routing in general and MANET routing in particular. As a case study, we demonstrate
a comprehensive performance evaluation of the Dynamic MANET On Demand (DYMO) routing protocol using a model we implemented
for the popular OMNeT+ + discrete event simulation environment. |
