Abstract

MANET is a mobile ad hoc network that has the capability or changing its location and configuring itself as per the needs and requirements of the user on the go. A MANET is quite difficult to control in terms of its routing protocol as there is no fixed terminology that can be implemented onto it for the optimal transfer of the data from the source to the destination. In this paper, analysis between various routing protocols has been done. A bio-inspired technique is proposed to analyze network performance. AODV, DSR, DSDV and hybrid routing protocols are compared in terms of throughput. Packet loss and delay. Experimental results show that hybrid routing protocols has better performance as compared to the other protocols. The cuckoo search and bee colony algorithm will search optimal path from source to destination. The searched path will be compared with the AODV protocol and nodes which are common in the path is selected as the best nodes for the path.
