Abstract
Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) are very helpful in situations where wired or wireless network, with some infrastructure, are not feasible. In such areas there are various possible challenges: open channel, surrounding environment, resource scarcity. All these factors somehow prevent a MANET from working efficiently. Node/s in the network may drop all kind of packets and disturb the network activities to achieve its goal. Packet dropping is a serious issue. It can lead to data loss as well as disruption in routing and acknowledgement process. This paper analyzes variation in packet dropping nodes, by varying number of nodes, keeping the working area constant and by varying working area, keeping the number of nodes constant. Results obtained after analysis will be useful to find out optimum number of nodes in an area. Outcome of the current work will lead in efficient working of network.
