Abstract

MANET network is a collection of mobile nodes that are dynamically and arbitrarily situated in such a way that the communication between the nodes changing consistently, for establishment of communication within the network, network finds the routes between the nodes. The essential objective of such an Ad-hoc network is finds right and efficient route between the nodes for messaging. Energy parameter is an important issue in MANET for efficient or better communication. Nodes are working in presence of limited energy within the network. So for preventing energy consumption, MANET needs to efficient routing scheme. In wireless network comparison to wired network, proper utilization of battery power is essential to maintain network connectivity. Different energy efficient routing protocols like AODV, DSR and ZRP which are finds nearby nodes in network and consumes energy in different amount. These three protocols falls in different category and follow own rules. This Paper presents comparative study of AODV, DSR and ZRP routing protocols on different parameters like PDR, Routing Overhead and Throughput. Network Simulator NS-2 used for the comparative study of AODV, DSR and ZRP and finds DSR is energy efficient protocol in Mobile Ad-hoc Network.
