Communication among the wireless links between mobile nodes is become popular research area because of its simplicity of deployment and mobility. Collection of all mobile nodes through which all wireless links are connected called as Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET). MANET network gets too much attraction of researchers due to its mobility, reliability, self-repairing, dynamic infrastructure and independent with the help of center administration. Despite of numerous advantages it has many problems like synchronization, routing protocol, delay and shortest path. Many routing protocols have been proposed like OLSR, DSDV, DSR, AODV and TORA so far to improve the routing performance therefore these routing protocols are studied in depth and simulated using NS-2. The simulation and comparison results will briefly present the impact of network size, packet delivery ratio, average delay and average throughput.
