Analysis of Reactive AODV Routing Protocol for MANET

Ad-Hoc network is the ultimate solution for mobile (movable) user's network. Now a day the huge growth of mobile users in network, so such infrastructure less (MANET) network are needed. Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of mobile device, multi hop and self configured network. In this infrastructure less (MANET) network the routing is a challenging work, because there is no fixed device, all are movable and each device act as a node as well as a router. The mobile Ad-Hoc network has more routing protocols to address the packet. According to the previous survey, we found the Ad-Hoc On demand Distance Vector Protocol (AODV) is the best choice for different types of infrastructure less network. This work proposed to find merits and demerits of the AODV protocol using OMNET++ simulator.
