Analyzing Throughput of MANET with Reduced Packet Loss

This research paper analyses the throughput capacity of Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) with reduced packet loss. The nodes are then discovered using Medium Access Control (MAC) 802.11 protocol. It has the capability to discover the neighbor nodes automatically and the next node of the throughput for each node is determined using Flooding algorithm. In this algorithm, each node try to forward every information to every one of its nearest source node and then it receives the acknowledgement from the destination nodes. After initializing the source and destination node, the shortest path between the source and destination node is determined using K- Nearest Neighbor (KNN) algorithm. It calculates the distance between the nodes and sort the nearest neighbor based on the minimum distance. The routing is performed with the help of Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) algorithm which allows each dispatcher to decide on and control the routes used in routing packets. The packet loss gets reduced by considering the throughput of nodes. Here the Operating System is Linux Simulation software and then Network Simulator version 2 tool was used.
