Abstract

A mobile ad hoc network is made up of mobile wireless hosts. When hosts move, the routes change, necessitating the need for a system to find new routes. A crucial aspect of the development of wireless networks is ad-hoc networking. Ad-hoc networks often consist of identical nodes that connect with one another via wireless links without the use of a centralized controller. Ad-hoc wireless networks carry over the standard issues with wireless and mobile communications, like bandwidth optimization, battery management, and improvement of transmission quality. Due to its self-upkeep and self-configuration characteristics or behavior, mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) have achieved great success and attention. Routing attacks are used to quickly alter the network topology of MANETs based on wired and wireless networks. Therefore, securing this network without infrastructure is a big problem. In recent years, experts from all over the worldhave paid particular attention to research on improving the performance of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). Routing methods are especially crucial in a dynamic network environment like MANET for enhancing overall network performance. In addition to discussing the technical difficulties that protocol designers and network engineers must overcome, this paper offers insight into the possible applications of ad hoc networks. Routing, service and resource discovery, Internet access, billing, and security are some of these difficulties.
