VANET in hilly terrains suffers frequent signal breakdown, interferences and other hinderances, affecting QoS (Quality of service). In this paper various Ad hoc routing protocols are compared for IP, Throughput FIFO taking to consideration parameters real traffic scenarios like altitude, nodes, speed, data size & weather mobility model using Qualnet as a simulation tool at higher altitude 1...

The main aim of this paper is to present comprehensive study on the performance and behavior of Ondemand Distance Vector Routing approach (AODV), Table Driven Routing approach (DSDV) and Hybrid Routing approach (ZRP) in VANETs. VANETs are an enhanced form of MANETs where moving nodes are replaced by vehicles. This paper evaluates these protocols under realistic mobility models to analyze their ...

HOPNET is a novel hybrid routing protocol based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP) for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). In this paper, we present an adaptation of the HOPNET algorithm in a real ad hoc Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), which tends to be more critical than MANETs in terms of energy amount, processing power, memory and communication. Our proposed algorit...

We investigate the impact of different mobility rates on the performance of routing protocols in ad-hoc mobile networks. Based on our investigation, we design a new protocol that results from the synthesis of the well known protocols: ZRP and RUNNERS. We have implemented the new protocol as well as the original two protocols and conducted an extensive, comparative simulation study of their perf...
