Evaluation of performance of hop by hop vector routing protocol and on demand protocol in vehicular ad-hoc

Analysis of Hop by Hop Vector Routing Protocol is compared with novel on demand Routing Protocol in the Vehicular Ad-hoc network (VANET) using an NS2 simulator to improve the packet delivery ratio and reduce delay. Materials and methods: Hop by Hop routing protocol is considered as group 1 and on demand Routing Protocol is considered as group 2. The performance evaluation was done using NS2. Sample size for each group was taken as 10. Clincalc is used as a tool for the calculation of group size. 80% is the G power for analysis. Results: Dynamic Source Routing Protocol has a high Packet delivery ratio (91%), minimum delay (8.70 ms) compared to Hop by Hop Vector routing protocol with a Packet delivery ratio (85%) and delay (18.3 ms). According to the statistical analysis the significance value of packet delivery ratio is 0.049 and time delay is 0.029 (p is lesser than 0.05). Conclusion: According to the study novel on demand Routing protocol performs significantly better with a high packet delivery ratio and minimum delay compared with Hop by Hop Vector routing protocol.
