Abstract

With the current advances like wireless networks is becoming more useful technology and also increasing popularity. Simulation is the technique which is used for evaluation of wireless networks. WSN is Multi-hop Self-configuring and consists of sensor nodes. The movements of nodes are like the patterns which can be classified into different mobility models and each of them have been characterized by its own distinctive features and also plays an important role in the connectivity of these nodes. There is numerous number of Network Simulator’s available. Here we are using the NS2 simulation tool is used to find that which mobility model is best for real-life Scenarios. The simulator is a usage of Open System Interconnections (OSI) layers utilized in wireless simulation. In this paper, we analyze the realistic mobility models likewise entity models (Manhattan model and Gauss Markov model) and group mobility model (Reference Point Group Model) and Random Waypoint mobility model. The performance study of AWSN that uses Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) as the routing protocol. Network simulation uses Randomwaypoint in the mobility model. The high-level contribution of this paper is based on simulation analysis of Existing Mobility Models are discussed on a variety of the simulation settings and parameters to find these results are as follows Packet-Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-to-End Delay (ED),Dropped Packets (DP) and Generated Packets (GP) are studied in detailed.
