Abstract

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) provides transmission of data between the nodes in an infrastructure less atmosphere. Nodes are highly mobile and dynamic which distresses the QoS in MANET. It is important to use suitable position allocator to allocate the nodes in MANET. The network's performance is influenced by the environment type as well as a proper routing protocol, mobility model, and position allocators. For highly dynamic environment, it is advisable to use appropriate mobility model along with the position allocator. This paper gives a brief overview about the existing position allocators used for simulation in NS-3. We have designed and implemented Rectangular-3D Position Allocator for NS-3 using the concept of existing Grid Position Allocator. We have done simulation analysis with the proposed allocator with the Random Box position allocator in static network and dynamic (stable and unstable) network on routing protocols AODV and DSDV by considering throughput, delay, and PDR as the QoS metrics. It has been determined that the Rectangular-3D position allocator performs better in static network for different values of parameters like number of nodes, packet size, simulation time and simulation area with QoS parameters like PDR, delay, and throughput for both AODV and DSDV routing protocols. It is also examined that the stable network gives better performance in comparison to unstable network for different parameters for both the routing protocols. When comparing the three QoS metrics, it is found that AODV performs much better than DSDV.
