Abstract

AODV is a reactive routing protocol that sets up routes between source and destination nodes as and when
needed. The performance of AODV protocol depends on the choice of certain parameters including route request
retries which is, by default, set as two in the corresponding RFC. In the present work, the effect of Route Request
Retries (RRR) on a set of performance metrics viz. Normalized Routing Load (NRL), Average End-to-End Delay
(AEED), Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and Throughput has been investigated for a linear ad hoc network of five
nodes. Three different scenarios have been investigated wherein middle node is made to remain stationary, mobile
with low mobility and mobile with high mobility. Mobility of the middle node is found to be having significant
effect on the performance of such linear ad hoc networks. RRR has no influence on the performance of linear ad
hoc network of stationary nodes. However, RRR is having significant effect on the performance of linear ad hoc
network if a node is made mobile. Performance of such linear ad hoc network is also affected by the choice of
duration of simulation.
