Abstract
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) is a type of wireless ad-hoc network which is
a self-arranging network of mobile nodes connected by wireless route links which creates an
discretionary topology. The mobile nodes are free to move randomly and to arrange
themselves in a random manner. Thus, the wireless ad hoc network topology may expand
rapidly and unpredictably. In mobile adhoc networks, the routing protocol plays an
important role for improving Quality of Service(QoS). There are many different types of
routing protocols such as reactive, proactive and hybrid. The Dynamic Source Routing
(DSR) is a reactive routing protocol which establishes routes on-demand, as they are
needed. In this paper, we proposed a new routing protocol Modified Dynamic Source
Routing (M-DSR) which is based on route caching strategy and a better route caching
method can decrease routing overheads with the help of the existing route information more
competently which intern gives good performance than the existing DSR routing protocol
with respect to set of performance metric such as packet delivery ratio, throughput, packet
loss and overhead, under different pause time. We design proposed M-DSR routing protocol
and implemented with certain simulation parameters using Network Simulator (NS-2) tool.
The performance analysis of routing protocol designed for wireless networks has been very
challenging. Hence, simulations are always utilized to obtain the desired performance
results.
