This document contains an outline for a thesis on routing protocols in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). It includes an introduction describing characteristics, advantages, applications and disadvantages of MANETs. It also lists related work and the organization of the thesis. The outline then describes various routing protocols for MANETs including reactive, proactive, hybrid, hierarchical and geographic routing protocols. It provides details on some reactive routing protocols like AODV, DSR, TORA, ABR and SSA. The document discusses simulation models for evaluating routing protocols including network simulators like NS2, simulation parameters like mobility and traffic models, and performance metrics.
