GSM Based Comparative Investigation of Hybrid Routing Protocols in MANETS

Abstract

The field of Adhoc Network has gained an important art of the awareness of researchers and become very popular in last few years. Adhoc network can operate without fixed infrastructure and can survive rapid changes in the network topology. This paper presents a survey on the art of energy efficient routing protocols for Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET). Since the nodes in MANET are movable, the routing and power management become significant issue. In this paper, the performance comparisons of mobile ad hoc network's protocol with its quality of service factors has been considered. The main concentration of the paper is on hybrid routing protocols which is basically combination of proactive and reactive routing protocols. In this paper three different types of hybrid protocols are chosen for performance comparison on the basis of diverse simulation parameters.
