Abstract

Routing protocol plays a vital role in FANETs (Flying Ad-Hoc Networks) by facilitating communication between nodes and enabling the establishment of efficient routes. In a FANET, where the nodes can be drones, airplanes or other unmanned aerial vehicles, mobility is a key aspect that requires proper route management. Among the most well-known and widely used routing protocols in different types of networks is AODV (Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector). AODV is a reactive routing protocol specially designed for ad hoc networks, including FANET networks. It offers an efficient solution to establish dynamic routes between nodes when direct communication between a source node and the destination node is not possible. However, most of the studies available in the literature mainly focus on the comparison between different routing protocols. They often neglect to examine in detail the performance of the same routing protocol under different circumstances or conditions. This paper offers a thorough investigation into the influence of noise on the AODV protocol in FANET networks. Furthermore, we introduce a proposed enhancement to the AODV protocol, specifically designed to improve its ability to withstand the effects of noise. Additionally, we present simulation results that evaluate the performance of AODV in terms of throughput, End-to-End Delay, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), and energy consumption.
