Mobile ad hoc networks are type of wireless networks in wh ich any kind of infrastructure is not used, i.e. there are no infrastructures such as routers or switches or anything else on the network that can be used to support the network structure and the nodes has mobility.The routing is particu larly a challenging task in MANETs that selecting paths in a network along which to send network traffic.In this paper, the performance analysis is carried out on Ad-hoc Ondemand Distance Vector (A ODV), Limited Hop Count AODV (LHC-AODV), Optimized Lin k State Routing (OLSR), Unnecessary Loop OLSR (UL-OLSR) and Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) protocols using NS2 simulator.The delay, throughput, and packet delivery ratio are the three co mmon measures used for the comparison of the performance of above protocols.
