Sandeep Kaur, Ketki Arora . Performance Evaluation of Diverse MANET Routing Protocols - A Review. International Journal of Computer Applications. 107, 17 ( December 2014), 39-42. DOI=10.5120/18847-0335
MANET is infrastructure less, decentralized multi-hop network where the mobile nodes are free to move randomly, these mean the network topology dynamic, the performance evaluation is major challenges in ad hoc network. Performance evaluation refers to evaluate the performance of MANET routing protocols, there are various performance metrics are used to improve the performance of MANET routing protocols. Performance are evaluated in case of change in traffic, number of nodes, mobility and pause time etc. performance is measured in term of packet delivery ratio, routing load, average jittering and throughput. In this paper, we review on the various research papers related to the performance evaluation of various routing protocols and performance comparison of routing protocols in MANET, we also provide the overview of MANET routing protocols such as: AODV, DSDV, DSR and ZRP.
