Abstract - A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) consists of mobile wireless nodes in which the communication between nodes is
carried out without any centralized control. MANET is a self organized and self configurable network where the mobile nodes move
arbitrarily. The mobile nodes can receive and forward packets as a router. Routing is a critical issue in MANET. Therefore focus in
this paper is to compare the performance of three routing protocols DSDV, DSR and AODV for CBR traffic by varying no. of nodes
in terms of packet delivery ratio, end to end delay, routing overhead and throughput. The simulation is carried out on NS2.
Keywords - MANET, Routing Protocols, DSDV, DSR, AODV, NS2.

D. Throughput
Figure 4 presents the comparison of three protocols
with throughput used as metrics. It was clear from the
figure that throughput was lowest for proactive than the
two reactive protocols. The throughput was more for
DSR protocol when compared with other reactive
protocol AODV.
