摘要:A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a temporary collection of mobile nodes randomly moved within alimited terrain area. The nodes are connected to form a wireless network without use any communicationinfrastructure. Because of the limiting resources of MANET nodes, multiple hops scheme is proposed fordata exchange across the network. Varieties of mobile ad hoc routing protocols have been developed tosupport the multi-hop scheme of ad hoc networks. A popular Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)provides a reliable connection in a computer network environment; it sets its congestion window size inresponse to the behavior of the network to achieve the best performance. This work aims to investigate andcompare the MANET protocol performance, such as DSDV, AODV and DSR in terms of networkthroughput, average routing load, the packet delivery ratio (PDR), and average end-to-end delay byvarying the maximum congestion window size. Our simulation has been implemented using a well-knownNS-2.35 network simulator. The simulated results show that the demonstrates of the concepts of MANETrouting protocols with respect to TCP congestion window size in MANET environment.
