Abstract

A simulation study using NS2 simulator using two main routing protocols with specific design parameters has been carried out to investigate the QoS main parameters such as throughput, delay, Jitter, Control Overhead, Number of packets, number of packets dropped and the rating overheads. The traffic is made of CBR slow video traffic. From the result it is noted that the SDWCA routing protocol outperforms the AODV routing protocols in the throughput, the delay and the jitter issues at different loading levels.
