摘要：MANET is an assortment of mobile nodes that communicate with each other withoutbase station. These networks are developed instantly or on-demand when some nodes come in the mobilityrange of each other and decide to cooperate for data transfer and communication.Due to inadequate resources inMANETs, to design a proficient and consistent routing strategy is still a challenge. An intelligent routing stratagem isrequired to efficiently use the limited resources. To overcome this problem a number of routing protocols have beendeveloped and the number is still increasing day by day. It is quite complex to determine which protocols may performwell under a number of diverse network scenarios such as network size, topology etc. In this paper we provide anoutline of a wide range of the existing routing protocols with a particular focus on their characteristics andfunctionality.Also, the comparison is provided based on the routing methodologies and information used to makerouting decisions.
