Abstract

In the recent past, the area of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) and its variant Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) are increasingly finding applications in the Internet of Things (IoT). MANETs have a particular characteristic of a rapidly changing network topology. This feature has an effect on: network connectivity, radio channel utilization and energy consumption of the network. Depending on the speed at which nodes are moving, designing routing protocol for MANET can be extremely challenging. Several works in literature have been proposed to address this problem. This paper provides a survey of the recent protocols proposed for MANETs which considers Mobility, Quality of Service (QoS) and Energy conservation network aspects. In this paper, special attention is paid to the contributions on multi-path mutation-based protocols and application scenarios.
