Book excerpt: This book provides about Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a dynamic wireless network that can be formed without the need for any pre-existing infrastructure in which each node can act as a router. One of the main challenges of MANET is the design of robust routing algorithms that adapt to the frequent and randomly changing network topology. A variety of routing protocols have been proposed and several of them have been extensively simulated or implemented as well. In this book, we compare and evaluate the performance of two types of on demand routing protocols- Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol, which is unipath and Adhoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector (AOMDV) routing protocol. In this paper we note that on comparing the performance of AODV and AOMDV, AOMDV incurs more routing overhead and packet delay than AODV but it had a better efficiency when it comes to number of packets dropped and packet delivery. This also describes how to use the PUMA for sending message in the routing applications and to give maximum efficiency.
