Impact of Mobility models on Mobile Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) is an emerging technology, finds variety of applications in military, movement tracking, industries and medical fields. WSN are self configurable, self healing networks. In mobile sensor network, (MSN) nodes are free to move with wireless links without infrastructure. In this paper, we have studied the impact of various mobility models with AODV and DSDV routing protocols and have compared the throughput of the models.Parameters such as loss ratio, hop counts, velocity of the nodes are analyzed by varying the node density using various mobility models and routing protocols.
