Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of independent self communicating devices under different movement patterns. Mobility is one of the factors influencing routing process and its performance in these networks. As the network is decentralized, each node adopts different mobility pattern. Frequent changes in position of the nodes have direct impact over network efficiency and its performance. In this paper, the performance of MANET is analyzed using Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV) routing protocol under Random Way Point (RWP), Manhattan Model (MM) and Pursue Mobility Models (PMM). Simulations are carried out using NS-2, with 100 node network. This paper made a performance comparison between these mobility models with performance metrics such as throughput, delay, overhead, energy and packet delivery ratio.
