It is easily deployed and suitable for a broad range of applications in the various domains which include disaster management, fire outbreak, emergency operations and as well provide communication in places without wireless facilities. However, due to MANET mode of operation, challenges such as dynamically changing topology due to high node mobility, energy efficiency, and security are been faced by MANET which makes it so difficult in providing a robust and efficient routing protocol.
