Improving Bandwidth Utilization in AODV over 802.11 Networks

Adhoc on demand distance vector routing protocol is designed for use in Ad hoc mobile networks. AODV is an on demand routing algorithm in that it determines a route to a destination only when a node wants to send a packet to that destination. This paper focus to improve the bandwidth by using different methods. The bandwidth is the combination of width and range of frequency and due to this we also solve the hidden terminal problem. These hidden terminals degrade the performance of Adhoc networks for sharing resources on the same bandwidth. The fair share algorithm had been used and run under the network simulator (NS2). In these we improve the performance and check the congestion level. With the removal of collision and congestion we improve the bandwidth. The simulation performed over 802.11 networks.
