摘要：Performance of routing protocols in mobile ad-hoc networks is greatly affected by the dynamic nature of nodes, route failures, wireless channels with variable bandwidth and scalability issues. A mobility model imitates the real world movement of mobile nodes and is central component to simulation based studies. In this paper we consider mobility nodes which mimic the vehicular motion of nodes like Manhattan mobility model and City Section mobility model. We also propose a new Group Vehicular mobility model that takes the best features of group mobility models like Reference Point Group mobility model and applies it to vehicular models. We analyze the performance of our model known as Group Vehicular mobility model (GVMM) and other vehicular mobility models with various metrics. This analysis provides us with an insight about the impact of mobility models on the performance of routing protocols for ad-hoc networks. The routing protocols are simulated and measured for performance and finally we arrive at the correlation about the impact of mobility models on routing protocols, which are central to the design of mobile ad-hoc networks
