Example of MANET
Cellular vs. ad-hoc network
Cellular Network Ad-Hoc Network
 Infrastructure network.  Infrastructure less network.
 Fixed, pre-located cell sites and
stations.
 No base station and rapid
deployment.
 Detailed planning before setting
up a base station.
 Ad-hoc network automatically
forms and adapt to changes.
 High cost for setup.  Low cost for setup.
 Large setup time.  Less setup time.
TYPES OF MANET
• InVANETs – Intelligent Vehicular ad-hoc network
make use of AI to tackle unexpected situation like
vehicle collisions and accidents.
• VANETs – Vehicular ad hoc network enables
effective communication with another vehicle or
helps to communicate with roadside equipments.
• iMANET– Internet based Mobile ad hoc network
helps to link , fixed as well as mobile nodes.
Characteristic of MANET
•MANET is classified in multihop and
mobility.
• Mobile nodes are characterized with less memory,
weight, power and light features.
• Required minimum human intervention to
configure the network.
Mechanism for manet
• Multihop operation required for routing
mechanism in different mobile nodes.
• Internet access mechanism.
• Mechanism to detect and act on , merging of
existing network.
• Self configuring network requires an address
allocation mechanism.
• Security mechanism.
Transmission standards
• Piconet.
• Home RF ( Radio Frequency ).
• IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN WG ( Working Group ).
• Bluetooth SIG ( Special Interest Group ).
-- These above use radio wave ,frequency band
of around 2.4 GHz.
• IrDA ( InfraRed Data Association )
-- Uses infrared instead of radio waves.
Piconet
• A general purpose, low-powered, ad-hoc
network.
• It allows two devices near each other to
inter-operate.
• These devices can be either mobile or fixed.
• The range is said to be reasonably short.
Home radio frequency
Uses Shared Wireless Access Protocol (SWAP)
system
• carries both voice and data traffic.
• inter-operate with the PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network)
and the Internet.
• the range covers typical home and yard.
IEEE 802.11 wireless lan
The principles of Wireless Local Area Network
(WLAN) are defined in IEEE 802.11 standard.
• It defines two different topologies:
ad-hoc network and infrastructure network.
• This ad-hoc network is able to use only created
wireless connection instead of fixed
infrastructure.
Bluetooth
• The code name for an open specification for
short-range wireless connectivity.
• Effortless, instant wireless connections between
a wide range of communication devices in a small
environment.
• The BT range restricts the environment to about
10 meters.
• Used in virtually any mobile device like that can
have Bluetooth radios integrated into them.
IrDA
• In-room cordless peripherals to host-PC.
• Maturity and standardization activities advantage
over radio.
• Line-of-sight requirement disadvantage.
• Based on technology similar to the remote control
devices.
• High-speed short range, point-to-point cordless
data transfer.
Routing protocols
• Self starting and self organizing.
• Minimal network traffic overhead.
• Rapid convergence.
• Multihop and loop-free paths.
Routing protocols falls in two categories:
Re-active
Pro-active
Reactive routing protocol
• Initiative for finding routers does not take place.
• Established routes “ on demand”.
• Save energy and bandwidth during inactivity.
Examples: AODV, DSR, etc.
Pros and Cons :
o Do not use bandwidth except when needed.
o Initial in delay.
Proactive routing protocol
•
•On demand flooding the route with RREP.
• All routes are maintained all the time.
• Low latency, suitable for real time traffic.
Examples : DSDV, OLSR.
Pros and Cons :
o Routes are always available.
o Bandwidth might get wasted due to periodic
updates.
Protocols trade-off
• Proactive protocols
– Always maintain routes .
– Little or no delay for route determination.
– Consume bandwidth to keep routes up-to-date.
– Maintain routes which may never be used.
• Reactive protocols
- Lower overhead since routes are determined on demand.
– Significant delay in route determination.
– Employ flooding (global search).
– Control traffic may be bursty.
Pros and Cons for Manet
PROS:
Separation from central network administration.
Self-configuring nodes are also routers.
Self-healing through continuous re-
configuration.
CONS:
Limited resources and physical security.
Intrinsic mutual trust vulnerable to attacks.
Lack of authorization facilities.
MANET usage areas
• Military Scenario.
• Sensor Network.
• Rescue operation.
• Student on campus.
• Free internet sharing.
• Conference.

Conclusion
The mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a collection
of wireless mobile hosts dynamically establishing a
short lived network without the support of a network
infrastructure. In this type of environment, it's
expected that a large number of ad-hoc connections
will exist in the same region without any mutual
coordination. Mobile ad-hoc networks are the future
of wireless networks. Nodes in these networks will
generate both users and application traffic and
perform various network functions.
Future aspects
In future mobile ad-hoc networks will use mobile
routers to provide Internetconnectivity to mobile ad-
hoc users. A mobile router will also allow mobility of
an ad-hoc network, where mobile users may use an
Internet access within an ad-hoc network domain.
Recently, organizations have begun to see potential
for such dynamic networks. Mobile ad-hoc networks
are of increasing interest for a distributed set of
applications, such as distributed collaborative
computing, distributed sensing networks, potential
fourth generation wireless systems, and response to
incidents that destroyed the existing communication
structure.
