Mobile ad hoc networks are made up of nodes that are wirelessly linked to one another and may interact with one another without access to a central hub. Collected information are aggregated and send to base station. Nodes in the network can follow two types of routing structure flat and hierarchical routing structure. Each routing structure has proactive and reactive protocols. In this paper we analyzed flat and hierarchical routing structure protocols based on the parameter such as scalability, bandwidth consumption, memory overhead, and control overhead. Based on the parameter, we compared proactive and reactive protocols, performance and characteristics are explained in graph model and suggested which routing structure protocol is efficient in large network
