ABSTRACT

The project entitled PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF ADHOC ROUTING

PROTOCOLS USING CLUSTER aims in evaluating the performance of three well known
protocols that are commonly used in Mobile Adhoc Network, namely Destination Sequenced
Distance Vector Routing(DSDV), Dynamic Source Routing(DSR) and Associativity Based
Routing(ABR) Using cluster.
The project evaluates the performance of these protocols based on the Mobility factor, Link
Change, and delay in transmission.
The project is implemented using Java programming language, and the results are tabulated
as graph using Excel sheet.
