Due to their self-organizing, rapid deployment and low-cost features, mobile ad hoc network (MANET) are proving to be a promising architecture for communicating between wireless links between mobile nodes. Despite the many advantages of wireless sensor networks in many areas, they have many problems such as managing the power consumption of mobile devices, selecting the routing protocol, limiting bandwidth and the shortest path. In order to achieve a good service quality, to ensure the routing of the information and to extend the lifetime of the entire network, the analysis of the protocol’s performance is the main step to make before the selection of protocol. Therefore, the selected protocol should have the best results in terms of delivery and data integrity. This article presents a performance analysis of some routing protocols namely, DSDV, OLSR, DSR, and AODV, which are evaluated and simulated using the NS2 simulator. The results of the simulation give the better performance of routing study protocols based on the average end-to-end delay, throughput, and packet delivery.
