Detailed explanation-1: -A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes that act as both routers and hosts in an ad hoc wireless network and that dynamically self-organize in a wireless network without using any pre-established infrastructure. Nodes typically transmit in broadcast messages that reach only nearby nodes.

Detailed explanation-2: -The full form of MANET is Mobile Ad Hoc Networks . A MANET is a network of wirelessly connected mobile devices that is constantly self-configuring and infrastructure-free. Each device in a MANET has the freedom to move autonomously in any direction, thus it often changes connections with other devices.

Detailed explanation-3: -Applications of MANET Advanced features of Mobile ad hoc networks, including data rates compatible with multimedia applications global roaming capability, and coordination with other network structures are enabling new applications.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ad-hoc network is a self-configuring network of mobile routers connected by a wireless link. MANET is self-organizing and self-restoring. Sensor network have various nodes distributed randomly in a particular area to monitor physical and environmental conditions.
