Designing routing protocols for mobile ad hoc network

We propose the desirable features or criteria to be considered when designing routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). From a literature review to compare currently implemented routing protocols, we have identified the important features that should be included in the routing protocol. Looking at the current implementations, each routing protocol has its own particular features or criteria of merit. The mobile ad hoc network is expected to contribute a greater mobility service that will become a high demand.
