Abstract

In this paper we present a performance study of BitTorrent for sharing a large multimedia file. The scenario we consider represents a classroom environment where participant's mobile devices form a MANET. The objective is to evaluate performance impacts caused by variation of BitTorrent's chunck size and nodes mobility. The simulation tool used is ns-2 considering AODV and OLSR routing protocols. Results point out limitations in downloading progress due to mobility increase for both AODV and OLSR. Further, chunk size rise contributes significantly for better performance both for AODV as to OLSR. We also observe that OLSR imposes less routing overhead than AODV.
