Abstract: According to the routing protocol scalability evaluation standard proposed by MANET research group, the acalability evaluation of routing protocol based on real network traffic pattern is analytically performed. With the mathematic modeling procedure, the analytical results of hybrid routing mechanism of FSR and DSR show that hybrid routing is a fast convergent, routing message stable and adaptive protocol. It is suitable for applications in complicated network scenarios with varying network parameter.
