Performance Comparison of DSR, AODV and DSDV Routing Protocols for Ad Hoc Networks

Abstract: The thesis studies the importance of routing protocol in the field of communication. The main objective of this thesis is to show that among three routing protocol which protocol is best on which performance parameter. Many routing protocols exist in ad hoc networks which enable communication like, DSR, AODV, DSDV, etc. DSR delivers data in the adhoc network with the assumption that the network is connected but DSR fails when the network is partially connected i.e., source and destination are in different networks.

Keywords: Communication like, DSR, AODV, DSDV, etc
