Performance Evaluation of Multiple Data Rates Flying Ad Hoc Networks Using Rayleigh Fading

Abstract

Abstract

An exertion has been made to delineate the execution of the Rayleigh fading channel models by utilizing QualNet test system as far as QoS parameters are concerned. A situation has been created here for the Rayleigh fading channels with different parameters. The parameters such as data rate and speed of nodes play very important role in the performance analysis and design of the flying ad hoc network over the multipath fading environment. The impact of fading on network throughput, jitter, end to end delay, packet loss ratio and packet delivery ratio is explored in this paper. Results show the performance evaluation of ad hoc network without fading environment and with Rayleigh fading in different scenarios. Experimental results have been carried out by using simulation tool QualNet (version-6.1).
