Impact of Variable Transmission Range and Scalability With Respect To Mobility and Zone Size On Zone Routing Protocol

A variety of protocols are used in ad hoc network but the most popular protocol one is Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP). ZRP is a hybrid routing protocol. Transmission power affects the design and performance of all the protocols in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). Mobility of nodes and selection of Zone Size in ZRP are also the major issues. In this paper, the impact of Transmission Ranges and Scalability by varying Mobility rate along with Zone Radius on QoS based performance metrics has been analyzed. The environment has been simulated using NS2.33 Simulator. The objective of our work is to analyze that at what speed and by taking how much zone radius ZRP will be able to perform efficiently and effectively for Mobile Ad hoc Networks.
