Abstract |
|
A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a self-configuring network and the nodes are connected through wireless link. It is an infrastructure less network. The wireless network topology may change rapidly. Each node in the network act as router and it communicate other nodes. There is no centralized administration. Nodes in ad hoc networks are differentiated by their limited resources like power, memory and mobility. Due to the limited transmission range of the nodes, multiple hops may be needed for a node to send data to any other node in the network. Thus each node acts as a host and router. If a node needs to communicate with another that is outside its transmission range, an intermediate node acts as a router to relay or forward packets from the source to the destination. For this purpose, a routing protocol is needed. This paper presents a survey on various routing protocols. |
