Simulation-Based Packet Delivery Performance Evaluation with Different Parameters in Flying Ad-Hoc Network (FANET) using AODV and OLSR

Abstract

The article examines node connectivity as one of the most significant quality characteristics of any information and telecommunication network. The article is aimed to determine FANET parameters providing PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio) more than 90% for the specified area. All results were received on the basis of the experimental study. Imitation modeling based on an ns-2 network simulator was applied as a research method. Characteristics of the network based on the simulation model utilizing the AODV and OLSR routing protocols have been evaluated. The authors studied also the connectivity dependence on such network parameters as the nodes number and the transmission range.
