Recently, Wireless network industry for the ubiquitous generation is growing quickly. Especially, MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) is one of special issues of the networking technology for the ubiquitous environments. Then, many researchers are study MANET for enhanced performance. But many researchers are not focusing on developing routing protocol. In this paper, we proposed enhanced routing pr...

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are currently the most evolving research area in wireless networks as well as mobile communications. Discovering a new path upon route failure has become hot research issue. Also current MANET protocols are being designed without security in mind, where it is assumed that all the nodes in the network are friendly. In MANET communications, every node in the network...

Mobile ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile nodes, such devices as PDAs, mobile phones, laptops etc. that are connected over a wireless medium. There is no pre-existing communication infrastructure (no access points, no base stations) and the nodes can freely move and self-organize into a network topology. Hence, balancing the load in a MANET is important because the nodes in MANET...

MANET is tremendous increasing area now days for researcher in mobile computing and wireless technology. Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) is group of wireless mobile nodes which dynamically exchange data among themselves without the reliance on a fixed base station. Since of MANET challenges, such as mobility and dynamic nature it is not secure network. MANET is more open to different types of a...

Mobile Ad hoc Network is the kind of wireless networks that utilize multi-hop radio relaying [1] and it is an infrastructure less Network due to its capability of operating without the support of any fixed infrastructure. Security plays a vital role in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) due to its applications like battlefield or disasterrecovery networks [2]. Current wireless research points out th...

We present comparative analysis of MANET (Mobile Ad-Hoc Network) and VANET (Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network) routing protocols, in this paper. The analysis is based on various design factors. The traditional routing protocols of AODV (Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector), DSR (Dynamic Source Routing), and DSDV (Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector) of MANET are utilizing node centric routing which leads...

A Mobile Ad hoc network (MANET) is a system of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically self-organize in arbitrary and temporary network topologies. In MANET, nodes can directly communicate with all other nodes within their radio ranges. The nodes that are not in the direct communication range use intermediate nodes to communicate with each other. Local broadcast algorithm is used to reduce the n...

Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs), a subclass of mobile ad hoc network (MANET), is a promising approach for the intelligent transport system (ITS). VANET allows vehicles to form a self-organized network without the need for a permanent infrastructure. As the VANET has a potential in improving road safety, real time traffic update and other travel comforts, it turns attention of the researcher....

A mobile ad hoc network is part of wireless networks which is formed by collection of two or more nodes moving in an arbitrary manner. The nodes are self organizing, adaptive, infrastructure less and has dynamic topology. Hence due to high mobility and multipath propagation network is vulnerable to attacks. There are many types of MANET like VANET (Vehicular Ad hoc Network), SPANs (Smart Phone ...

Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is an autonomous, multi-hop and dynamic network composed of number of wireless mobile nodes. Routing protocols are challenges in designing Mobile Ad-hoc networks with low energy consuming and low control overhead. Ad-hoc on demand distance vector routing protocol (AODV) is specially designed for mobile ad-hoc networks with Expanding Ring Search (ERS) technique for ...
