Mobile adhoc networks are wireless networks that do not require a hardware infrastructure. The users of this
network is provided with the flexibility of remote internet access; however, issues pertaining to the technical
coverage area of such networks are a concern. Nevertheless, mobile ad-hoc networks may adopt various routing
protocols to improve its throughput and performance during data transfer among the corresponding devices; these
protocols include DSR, AODV, ZRP, and OLSR. The performance of these protocols varies for the reason that
different algorithms are utilized to select the best path in a computer network to transmit data to a device.
Furthermore, the number of connected devices within the network, influences the throughput and delay of the
protocol. This paper shall discuss four mobile ad-hoc network routing protocols that are supported by the Net
Sim simulator to evaluate its throughput and delay for a specified scenario. The results from the simulation would
be further analyzed to conclude the characteristics of each routing protocol.
