| Summary: | mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a self-configuring network of mobile routers
and associated hosts connected by wireless links, the union of which form an arbitrary
topology. The routers are free to move randomly and organise themselves arbitrarily;
thus, the network's wireless topology may change rapidly and unpredictably. The
network is currently applied in many areas suchas for military purposes, in hospitals,
campuses and offices. First of all, the scope of study of this projectwas to understand
current wireless standards, the nature of mobile ad hoc networks, the advantages and
disadvantages to it. The next step was to understand the requirements of file sharing
application in such networks. One of the challenges in MANET is the routing
protocol. The Ad Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol was
chosen and simulated in a hospital scenario whereby patients' records are constantly
uploaded and downloaded by doctors and nurses using mobile devices. The scenario
was simulated usingOMNeT++ which is an open source software. |
