%X Ad hoc Networks neither have centralized control nor specific  infrastructure. These types of networks have become very popular in last few years and a number of studies are being done to investigate and propose an optimized routing protocol. This paper describes Wireless ad-hoc network and comparative study on routing protocols. As these type of networks are used when no infrastructure is available. There is also focus on MANET (Mobile Ad Hoc Networks) and various routing protocols used in MANET. We have included a brief description of VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc  Networks) and comparison between various MANET routing protocols.
