Abstract

The performance and scalability of mobile, base-station-oriented wireless networks with respect to routing and mobility models is addressed in this paper. Using systems-oriented, large-scale discrete event simulation, both performance scalability and complexity scalability are analyzed. Performance scalability addresses the effect of network size on system performance. Complexity scalability, in this case, consists of communication complexity (i.e. amount of control information exchanged to create and maintain network connectivity). Results confirmed the scalability of base-station-oriented networks using the routing, and mobility models, using over 2000 fully dynamic hosts and routers. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
