Realistic Mobility for Mobile Ad Hoc Network Simulation

Abstract

In order to conduct meaningful performance analysis of routing algorithms for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), it is essential that the mobility model on which the simulation is based reflects realistic mobility behavior. However, current mobility models for MANET simulation are either unrealistic or are tailor-made for particular scenarios. We introduce GEMM, a tool for generating mobility models that are both realistic and heterogeneous. These models are capable of simulating complex and dynamic mobility patterns representative of real-world situations. We present simulation results using AODV, OLSR and ZRP, three MANET routing algorithms and show that mobility-model changes have a significant impact on their performance. Keywords: Mobility Model, MANET, GEMM ER -
