Abstract

A mobile ad hoc network is a collection of mobile nodes communicating without wired network and infrastructure or centralized control. Due to limited transmission range of wireless network, more than single hops may be required to transfer data across the network. In order to reliable communication within the network, a routing protocol is used which are call MANET routing protocol. The major function of such an MANET routing protocol is to establishment short and real route between a pair of nodes so that messages may be delivered in a timely manner. This chapter examines two routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks– the Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV), the pro-active routing protocol, and the Ad hoc On- Demand Distance Vector routing (AODV), an re-active routing protocol. The authors compare both protocols based on packet delivery fraction and average delay with changing number of source nodes and pause time.
