A COMPARISON OF IMPROVED AODV ROUTING PROTOCOL BASED ON IEEE 802.11 AND IEEE 802.15.4

Recently, wireless network industry for the ubiquitous generation is growing quickly. Especially, IEEE 802.15.4 is one of special issues of the networking technology for sensor network. Then, many researchers are studying it for enhanced performance. But many researchers are not focusing on developing routing protocol. So we had proposed improved AODV routing protocol in previous research. But it had studied about performance analysis based on IEEE 802.11. In this paper, we proposed improved routing protocol using AODV (Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector) for sensor network. The simulation result is analyzed and compared based on IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.15.4.
