Abstract: Ad-Hoc on Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol is the most studied routing protocols in MANET that allows mobile nodes in establishing an Ad-Hoc Network. The main feature of AODV is to provide loop free routes even while repairing broken links. The performance of AODV protocol is very much influenced by the choice of values for certain route maintenance parameters, such as Active route Timeout (ART) and Delete Period Constant (DPC). The present article provides vigorous and effective investigation of route maintenance parameters (i.e. ART and DPC) on the performance of AODV routing protocol by mentioning all the significant simulation parameters explicitly and also justify how the performance of AODV gets affected by variation in the above mentioned route maintenance parameters on the basis of node speed and pause time under the influence of Steady state RWP mobility model (SSRWP). NS-3.29 simulator has been used to analyze the performance of AODV routing protocol under the considered performance metrics such as Average End to End Delay, Average Packet Delivery Ratio, and Average Throughput.
