96 ◾ Mobile Ad Hoc Networks: Current Status and Future Trends
We analyze the average routing traffic in Figure 4.26. We draw the same conclusions as before,
but in this case it is shown in a better way. So, as regard the amount of traffic received by the node,
the best protocol is DSR.
In Figure 4.27, we show the average load supported by a node at the MAC level. e protocol
that provides a lower load is DSR (125 bps). OLSR has 190 bps of load. e maximum difference
