Abstract
In this paper, the performance of two possible switching schemes for ad hoc wireless networks, namely reservation-based (RB) and non-reservation-based (NRB) is investigated. It is shown that route reservation would be the scheme of choice in a scenario where delay is a constraint, the network is dense, and/or nodes move with moderate speed. However, a non-reservation scheme is preferable in a scenario where the network is sparse, there is heavy traffic load, nodes are static, and/or delay is not a major concern.
