REVIEW ON ROUTING PROTOCOLS FOR MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS

Abstract

A Mobile Ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes that is connected through a wireless medium forming a dynamic network. An Ad hoc network doesn’t have any centralized arbitrator or server. In ad hoc networks nodes move arbitrarily and network may experience rapid and unpredictable topology changes. Because nodes in MANET normally have limited transmission ranges, some nodes cannot communicate directly with each other. Hence routing paths in mobile ad hoc networks potentially contains multiple hops and every node in a network has the responsibility to act as a router. In this paper we provide an overview of routing protocols by presenting their characteristics and functionality and also provide a comparison between protocols to analyze performance.
