Abstract: In this paper, performance analysis of energy aware Location Aided Routing (LAR) Protocol is done for IEEE 802.15.4 based Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks considering mobile nodes. Random Waypoint Mobility Model is considered as the mobility model in the scenario. The various scenarios are designed and simulated by increasing the number of mobile nodes and varying the speed of the mobile nodes. The performance parameters such as throughput, average end to end delay, average jitter and residual energy for different type of scenarios are determined. The simulation is done by using Qualnet 6.1 simulator.
Keywords: MWSN, Random Waypoint Mobility Model, LAR, Requested Zone, Expected Zone.

Scope of the Article: Adhoc and Sensor Networks
