Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is a clean-slate networking architecture that puts information is focus instead of addressed hosts. Construction of content retrieval model to estimate the delivery performance is challenging in this ICN-based Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). In this paper, we propose a novel content retrieval model (PRCRM) for Information-Centric MANETs (ICMs) in 2-dimensional case. By investigating the distribution of content popularity, receiver-driven mechanism, content caching and replacement mechanism and generalized mobility model in 2-dimensional space, PRCRM constructs a novel content retrieval model based on the content hit/miss probability to estimate the content retrieval-related performance. We evaluate PRCRM by comparing its performance with another state of the art solution in terms of RTT and throughput. Simulation results demonstrate PRCRM's rationality and validity and it is shown that PRCRM is available to analyze content retrieval in ICMs.
