| Summary: | Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network that contains a lot of free or
autonomous nodes. The nodes in MANET are mobile thus entering and leaving the
network consequently change the topology of the network continuously. Therefore, themobility model shows how the speed and direction of a node changed according to a
given pattern of mobility. The most common mobility model used by the researcher is
Random Waypoint model because it is easy to implement and imitate with the real
scenario. Real scenario environment involves random movement of mobile thus mobility
of the nodes can largely affect the performance of routing protocol. These recent years,
various routing protocols are targeted specifically for this environment and it has been
developed with some performance simulation and analyzation. Generally, there are 3
types of routing protocol: proactive, reactive and hybrid. This project will be focusing on
AODV which is a reactive routing protocol. AODV is on-demand routing where the
routes will be created only when it is required to send the packets. The performance of
AODV is analyzed by varying mobility speed with different pause times. Performance
metrics considered in the study are throughput, packet delay, and packet delivery ratio (PDR). .
