Abstract

An adhoc wireless network is a self-organizing and self-configuring network with the capability of rapid deployment in response to application needs. Each host is equipped with a CSMA/CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) transceiver. All the nodes are free to move independently and randomly without any problem. This creates the scenario of multihop, where the packets originated from the source host are relayed by several intermediate hosts before reaching the destination. Routing is the process of finding a path from a source to destination among randomly distributed routers. In this paper hybrid routing protocol called Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP) and Fisheye State Routing Protocol (FSR) are examined. The performance analysis is done using performance metrics throughput, end-to-end delay packet delivery ratio is presented using network simulator Qualnet 5.0.2. The characteristic summery is also presented.
