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.

Mobility is one of the important issues in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). By definition, MANET nodes are free to move around and this may cause difficulty in routing. MANET routing protocols must consider this factor when making routing decision. Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP) is a hybrid routing protocol, which utilizes the proactive and reactive routing protocols advantages. ZRP proactively maintains routing information within a routing zone, while reactively discovering routes to destinations beyond the routing zone. Since ZRP is based on the concept of routing zone, determining an optimum routing zone radius has the major impact on the performance of that protocol. In this research, we studied the effect of zone radius on the performance of ZRP with different levels of node mobility. Node mobility is defined using two different parameters: node speed and pause time. Based on the simulation results, ZRP protocol using zone radius of two provides the best packet delivery fraction, throughput and normalized routing load. However, a larger zone radius will provide a lower delay.


In this research paper compare the protocol’s performance together with the experimental results of optimal routing using real-life scenarios of vehicles and pedestrians roaming in a city. In this research paper, conduct several simulation comparison experiments(in the NS2 Software) to show the impact of changing buffer capacity, packet lifetime, packet generation rate, and number of nodes on the performance metrics. This research paper is concluded by providing guidelines to develop an efficient DTN routing protocol. To the best of researcher(Parameswari et al.,) knowledge, this work is the first to provide a detailed performance comparison among the diverse collection of DTN routing protocols.
