Performance Evaluation of MANET Routing Protocols
The task of finding and sustaining routes in
Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETS) is an
important factor in determining the efficiency of
any MANET protocol. MANET characteristically
is an autonomous system of mobile nodes
connected by wireless links without any
centralised infrastructure. Absence of fixed
infrastructures and host mobility thus network
may experience rapid and unpredictable topology
changes. Hence, routing is required in order to
perform communication among the entire
network. There are several routing protocols
namely proactive, reactive and hybrid etc. In this
paper we will discuss the active research work on
these routing protocols and its performance
evaluation. To this end, we adopt a simulation
approach, which is more suitable to this kind of
analysis
Keywords: MANET, Proactive and Reactive and Hybrid routing protocols, Unicasting, Multicasting
