Simulation Environment
l The Network Simulator (NS2)
u Open Source
u Trace file
u AODV, DSR, etc. have been implemented
l Simulation metrics:
u Dropped Packets: total, due to no route
u Normalized Routing Load
u Hop count ratio
u Packet latency
l Simulation parameters
u 50 mobile nodes, 1500x300 m area, 4 data packets per second
