Abstract: A mobile Ad-Hoc network (MANET) is a collection of two or more devices or nodes or terminals with wireless communication i.e. mobile adhoc wireless network and networking capability that communicate with each other without the aid of any centralized administrator also the wireless nodes that can dynamically form a network to exchange information without using any existing fixed network infrastructure. And it’s an autonomous system in which mobile hosts connected by wireless links are free to be dynamically and same time act as routers at the same time and we discuss in this paper with basic introduction of MANET and its pros and cons. It then defines various protocols participated in routing through MANET. Ad Hoc Network must be able to adapt to changing network of this type at any time. The main classes of routing protocol are Proactive, Reactive and Hybrid. A Reactive (on-demand) routing strategy is a popular routing category for wireless ad hoc routing.
