Performance Comparison of ADSDV and DSDV in MANET .

A Mobile Ad hoc Network is a kind of wireless ad-hoc network, and is a self configuring network of mobile routers connected by wireless links. Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network without infrastructure. Mobile Ad hoc networks are characterized by a lack of infrastructure, and by a random and quickly changing network topology; thus the need for a robust dynamic routing protocol that can accommodate such an environment. To improve the packet delivery ratio of Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) routing protocol in mobile ad hoc networks with high mobility, a message exchange scheme for its invalid routereconstruction is being used. The Author proposed Advance DSDV (ADSDV) protocol that is simulated using NS-2 simulator and compared results in terms of packet delivery ratio, end to end delay and routing overhead in different environment; varying number of nodes, speed and pause time.
