Abstract :
A Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a decentralized network of autonomous mobile nodes able to communicate with each other over wireless links. Routing protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks has limitations such as frequent topology changes, limited battery power, bandwidth constraint, hidden and exposed node problem, high Bit Error Rate (BER) are major problems. Both proactive and reactive routing protocols prove to be inefficient in MANET. We propose Hybrid Routing Protocol (HRP), it combines the advantages of both proactive routing protocol. The HRP performance is compared with proactive and reactive protocols. We have used the ns-2 network simulator for simulating the proposed hybrid routing protocol, and present the results of simulations of networks of 50 mobile nodes.
