Energy efficient routing protocols for Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) and Wireless Sensor Network is a challenging task. Many different routing protocols based on different features have been proposed to the IETF. Performances of many of these routing protocols have been evaluated focusing on metrics such as delay, routing overhead, and packet delivery. Thus, this paper will discuss about the po...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes dynamically forming temporary network without the use of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. Due to the mobility of the nodes, as well as the continual arrival and departure of nodes, the topology of the network changes constantly. To manage the data transmission, routing protocols are needed. Therefo...

The field of wireless communication networks has thus been a keen area of research in the last decade. One of the crucial parameter for efficient operation of any wireless network is the routing algorithm. Advances in electronics and telecommunication industry in the last few decades have tremendously increased the use of wireless communication systems. However the choice of the routing algorit...

An ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile nodes, frequently forming a network topology without the use of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. we compare the performance of the three prominent routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks, Ad hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV), Destination Sequenced Distance Vector(DSDV) and Temporally Ordered Routing P...

A mobile ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically forming a temporary network without the use of any existing network infrastructure. A number of routing protocols like Destination Sequenced Distance Vector Routing (DSDV), Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV) have been implemented. This paper presents the comparative perform...

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a self-configuring infrastructure less network of mobile devices connected by wireless. MANETs are restricted to a local area of wireless devices, while others may be connected to the Internet. Cluster techniques used to grouping the mobile nodes to sending data simultaneously to the each group. Each and every group have their cluster header that storing infor...

Mobile Ad-hoc network is an infrastructure less multi hop wireless network without the aid of any centralized administration. MANET is a self configuring and self organizing collection of mobile nodes. As the nodes provided mobility, the routing is a very complex task in MANET. In MANET each node works as a host as well as a router to forward the packets from source to destination. As in MANET ...

Ad hoc networks are characterized by a lack of infrastructure, and by a random and quickly changing network topology; thus the need for a robust dynamic routing protocol that can accommodate such an environment. Consequently, many routing algorithms have come into existence to satisfy the needs of communications in such networks. This paper presents a performance comparison between two routing ...

This paper considers performance of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) routing protocols with respect to group and entity mobility models. The three widely used routing protocols have been investigated and compared: Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV), Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). Mobility models encompass: Reference Point Group Mobility (RPGM), ...
