A Study of Mobile ADHOC network Routing Protocol: -

Abstract

An Ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile hosts forming a temporary network withoutthe aid of any centralized administration or infrastructure. Such networks have no fixed topology due tothe high degree of node mobility. Hence, efficient and reliable routing is one of the key challenges inmobile ad hoc networks. Many routing algorithms have been proposed and developed for accomplishingthis task. Therefore, it is difficult to determine which protocol performs best under a number of differentscenarios. Hence, this paper presents review and a comparison of the typical representatives of routingprotocols designed for MANETs and the study in which discussed about typesofMANET,CharacteristicofMANET, ApplicationsofMANET, MANETchallenges, Security issues inMANET, Routing.
