Abstract:
With technological advancements, the network has also evolved to keep up with current tendencies.
Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a technology that consists of a collection of mobile nodes. These
nodes communicate with one another without the need for a central administrator. MANETs offer a
varied range of applications in many domains such as education, sensor networks, disaster relief, and
the military. The widespread of ad-hoc networking is due to the increase of wearable electronics and
improvements in wireless communication. Ad-hoc networking can be used whenever there is a lack of
or cumbersome usage of existing communication infrastructure. Ad hoc networking enables
participants to maintain connectivity while easily adding as well as removing them from the network.
MANET has a wide range of applications, from highly dynamic, mobile, and large-scale networks to
static, tiny networks bound by power bases. This study used a systematic review strategy to acquire
data from previously published studies from publishers, and these data were analyzed and evaluated as
well. The study finds that there are numerous applications of MANET technology in various sectors.
The magnitude of the dataset and the lack of quality attributes were two of the study's limitations.
