Comparative Study and Performance Analysis of MANET Routing Protocol

Abstract

MANET (Mobile ad hoc networks) are famous in research due to their ad hoc nature and effectiveness during calamities across continents when no framework support is free. Wireless network interfaces have a limited transmission range; nodes may require multiple network hops to trade information across the organization. Each versatile node functions like a switch in such an organization, sending details to the other portable connected nodes. The nodes should not interrupt communication and associate themselves with the correct information transfer. Another significant issue was the development of expandable route discoveries capable of assessing rapid topography variations and numerous network detachments caused by high vehicle quality. This research article describes extensive technological changes, including the components and flaws of current progressive routing algorithms. Routing protocols designed for wired networks, such as the distance vector or connection state conventions, are inadequate for this application because they assume fixed geography and high overheads. This research article includes the MANET-supported routing protocols and their performance analysis across various performance parameters such as packet delivery ratio, average throughput, residual energy, and delay.
