| Summary: | Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) is self-organized and self-configured networks that doesn’t need any cellular
infrastructure such as access point (AP), base station (BS) or fixed transmission links. Routing is point of research focus since the
invention of commercialized mobile ad-hoc networks. In the literature the classical taxonomy of MANETs routing protocols based on
the route computation process subdivided into: Proactive (Table -Driven), Reactive (On-Demand) and Hybrid (inherit both features of
the proactive and reactive).However this classification hide other types of MANETs routing protocols play a significant roles nowadays
such as(Multicast , Energy and Power- aware, Geographical routing and Hierarchical Routing). This paper provides a comprehensive
study of MANETs basic taxonomy of routing protocols. In addition intense comparison between some examples of each routing
protocols category has been made to further facilitate research in this area. |
