Abstract :
This paper presents a performance analysis comparison for different topology types that can be used with an improved fault-tolerant beacon vector routing (BVR) protocol. The topology types of mesh, torus, FCR, and communication graph are compared. The performance of these topology types is analyzed using BVR and three-phase fault-tolerant BVR. Performance metrics include throughput, latency, overhead, saturation points, and packet success rate in the presence of multiple node failures. Using this analysis, we recommend for the user a given topology type, depending on the desired tradeoffs for their given application
