摘要：Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is an infrastructure where nodes communicate without any central administration. Nodes are connected through wireless channels and can use multiple hops to exchange data. Routing protocols are needed for communication in such networks. Each node acts both as a router and host concurrently, which can move out or join the network freely. The instantly created network does not have any base infrastructure as used in conventional networks, but it is compatible with conventional networks. This paper discusses about the Destination � Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) which is a modification of the conventional Bellman-Ford routing algorithm. It addresses the drawbacks related to the poor looping properties of Routing Information Protocol (RIP) in the face of broken links. The modification adapted in DSDV makes it more suitable routing protocol for MANETs. This paper discusses about the DSDV protocol and analyses the properties of DSDV when it is used for MANET routing.
