Abstract
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are networks which routing is based on multi-hop routing from a source to a destination node or nodes. These networks have quite a many constrains because of uncertainty of radio interface and its limitations e.g. in available bandwidth. Also some terminals have limitations concerning battery energy in use. There are numerous applicable protocols for ad hoc networks, but one confusing problem is the vast number of separate protocols. Each of these protocols is designed to perform its task as well as it is possible according to its design criteria. The protocol to be chosen must cover all states of a specified network and never is allowed to consume too much network resources by protocol overhead traffic. This seminar paper deals with a classification of ad hoc routing protocols and also presents some specified protocols according to that classification. Presented protocols are selected according to an entity formed by this paper and related papers to be published by Networking Laboratory of HUT. The emphasis of this paper is not to present protocols in detail but to present main features of wide variety of different protocols and evaluate their suitability and tradeoffs.
