Abstract

We compare two evolutions of the Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol, i.e. DYMO and AODVv2-16. In particular, we apply statistical model checking to investigate the performance of these two protocols in terms of routes established and looping routes. Our modelling and analysis are carried out by the Uppaal Statistical Model Checker on 3\(\,\times \,\)3 grids, with possibly lossy communication.
