Multi-hop network is a wireless network that is formed for a temporary purpose. Unlike wired network, there is no centralized control over the network. So, all the devices act both as nodes and routers. Nodes have the property of moving with certain speed. Due to this property, there is a dynamic change in the connections among nodes. At any time, there is a change in number of nodes and their speed of moving in the network. Network size is the number of nodes participating in the networks. It has a noticeable influence on the network scalability and connectivity. These two properties have a great impact on MANET. This paper makes an effort to study the influence of one of the most important parameters, i.e. network size on the performance of MANET while implementing LANMAR routing protocol.
