| Abstract | Since several years MANETs are a hot topic in research. There are several routing protocols available for MANETs and for nearly every protocol further extensions and improvements exist, which often require particular configurations for optimal operation. The problem of finding an ideal parameter set for a given network scenario is often solved with time-consuming network simulations. However, real world deployments of Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs) require a timely determination of suitable parameters. Therefore, we propose an analytical approach to help finding appropriate parameters for a given scenario and to reduce the complexitiy of simulations. Our work is focused on the widely used OLSR routing protocol. The overall performance of an OLSR network is highly influenced by the transmission interval of topology control messages. Depending on the mobility of the nodes and the available bandwidth, shorter or longer intervals are more appropriate. Our analytical results presented in this paper allow for a precise estimation of the load imposed by OLSR control messages for each node. This eliminates the need of time-consuming simulations to choose appropriate intervals for control messages. Furthermore, these predictions could be a basis for automatic protocol configuration during runtime. |
