Abstract: |
Numerous
protocols have been developed for mobile ad-hoc networks. Such
protocols must deal with the typical limitations of these networks.
There are several different approaches to the Mobile Ad-hoc
Routing Protocols. In view of a large mobile ad-hoc network
as in a battlefield, we would require a highly scalable and
survivable network routing protocol. Landmark Routing (LANMAR)
Protocol [ ] offers hierarchical routing with multi routing
protocols capabilities; these features offer a highly scalable
and robust routing fabric. LANMAR uses two distinct routing
protocols. In our project, we use DSDV distance vector routing
protocol [ ] for inter-network routing, and Fisheye State Routing
(FSR) link state protocol [ ] for routing within each sub-networks.
By offering a multi-protocol routing, it combines the strength
of each routing protocols for different scope, and it provides
redundant routes to the destination favoring the more reliable
route. As such it could achieve a more robust and efficient
route. As there were no hierarchical multi routing protocols
model available on OPNET, we embarked to design and develop
the LANMAR routing protocol model library on OPNET Modeler release
10.5. This presentation focuses on the effort undertaken by
Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) and Defence Science & Technology
Agency (DSTA) Singapore, to model the LANMAR routing protocol
using DSDV and FSR on the OPNET Modeler, and evaluate the performance
of the LANMAR routing fabric in the mobile ad-hoc network. |
