[scenario]

It consists of 8 mobile nodes: 4 source nodes and 4 destination node. Each source is a CBR source over UDP. The size of a transmitted packet is 512 bytes. Transmission rate of a node is 600 Kbps. We assumed that the nodes are in transmission range at a constant distance of 195 m. The simulation time lasted for 80 sec.

Throughput:

Analysis: Node 1 starts transmitting at time T =1.4 sec while Node 2 starts transmitting at time T=10 sec. During the period of time [1.4 sec, 10 sec] Node 1 is the only transmitting node using the entire available bandwidth. This justifies the high performance of Node 1 during the specified interval of time. At time T=10 sec, Node 2 starts transmission hence sharing channel resources with Node 1. This explains the heavy reduction of bit rate. In addition, the bit rate plot experiences heavier oscillations and reduction as the number of transmitting nodes increases. Oscillations are reflected in heavy disorders in network performance.

Packet Drop Rate:

Analysis: This figure shows a high packet drop rate whenever the number of nodes sharing network resources increases. It can be shown that the packet drop rate in the interval [1.4 sec, 10 sec] is 0. This can be easily justified since only one node is using the network during this time interval. However this high-quality performance is deteriorated as more nodes start sharing the network resources.

Average Packets End to End Delay:

Analysis: When the number of nodes that are sharing the network resources, the delay significantly increases and readjusting CW of each node takes longer time.
