Abstract: Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) are part of wireless and mobile networks and all the nodes in the network are able to communicate between them depending on infrastructure less without any fixed infrastructures like a router. The nodes connected each other through the wireless and by using Ad-hoc it’s able to exchange the information among the source and the destination nodes. For interaction in Ad-hoc system, we need routing protocol for delivering the message effective within the time given. There are many routing protocols used to evaluate the performance of Ad-hoc. In this study, we used two of these routing protocols explained and evaluated based on the performance metric of the Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing (DSDV) and Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV). The network simulation version 2.35 (NS2) was used to perform the study. The result of the performance metrics was evaluated for these two routing protocols depend on Average throughput, average end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio and packet loss ratio over different network metrics based on node packet size, speed and a number of nodes. Based on the result AODV routing protocol perform better than DSDV in most of applying the result.
