Abstract
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) have evolved in the last years into standards in the communication world. By defnition, they do not need any network infrastructure to fa- cilitate communication between participating nodes. There- fore, they are dealing with new challenges in the context of ad hoc routing. In this paper, we present our new imple- mentation of the ad hoc routing protocol Dynamic MANET On Demand (DYMO) for the popular discrete event simula- tion environment OMNeT++. DYMO offers adaptation to changing network topology and determines unicast routes between nodes within the network on demand. Based on the developed model, we performed several simulation ex- periments to analyze the performance of DYMO with re- spect to changing network size and traffc conditions. The implementation of DYMO and the results of the simulation experiments are described in this paper.
