Abstract

Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) is a collection 
of mobile nodes that are arbitrarily located so that the 
interconnections between nodes are dynamically changing. In 
MANET mobile nodes form a temporary network without the 
use of any existing network infrastructure or centralized 
administration. A routing protocol is used to find routes 
between mobile nodes to facilitate communication within the 
network. Route should be discovered and maintained with a 
minimum of overhead and bandwidth consumption. A wide 
range of routing protocols for MANETs has been proposed by 
researchers to overcome the limitations of wired routing 
protocols. This paper presents performance evaluation of three 
different routing protocols, i.e., Dynamic Source Routing 
(DSR), Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) and Fisheye 
State Routing (FSR) in variable pause time. We have used 
Random Waypoint mobility model and performed simulations 
by using QualNet version 5.0 Simulator from Scalable 
Networks. Performance of DSR, OLSR and FSR is evaluated 
based on Average end to end delay, Packet delivery ratio, 
Throughput and Average Jitter.
