Study and Simulation of Routing Protocol for Maritime Wireless Mesh Networds Based on OPNET
In view of ships mobility and maritime special environment,this paper uses wireless Mesh Network to achieve maritime communications. Firstly,this paper introduces Mesh network key technologies and the OPNET network simulation platform,then gives the maritime wireless Mesh network architecture,and finally we simulate and analyze OLSR protocol,DSR protocol and AODV protocol in term of delay,delivery ratio and throughput by OPNET platform,the AODV protocol outperforms the other two protocols,more suitable for maritime communications.
