The main method for evaluating the performance of MANETs is simulation. In this paper performance of Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) reactive routing protocol is studied by considering IEEE and IEEE standards. Metrics like average end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio, total bytes received and throughput are considered for investigating simulation scenario by varying network size with 10 mps node mobility. Also simulation has been carried out by varying mobility for scenario with 50 nodes.

Introduction The advancement in information technology and the need for large-scale communication infrastructures has triggered the era of Wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a network of wireless mobile nodes which communicate with each other without any centralized control or established infrastructure. Routing is the process of selecting paths in a network along which data is to be sent, it is a critical task in MANET where the nodes are mobile. Dynamic and reliable routing protocols are required .
