Abstract: Nodes in MANETs transit from one mode to another in order to communicateamong themselves. Different types of modes are transmit, receive, sleep and idle. Maintaining dynamic topology and states lead to consequences such as consumption of more battery power thereby diminishes the network lifetime. Therefore, it is essential to optimize the power consumption for improving the performance of the network. Many routing protocols have been proposed for efficient routing of the data. Different routing protocols can be collaborated with multiple energy models such as GENERIC, MICAZ, MICA-MOTES, and USER-DEFINED types in QualNet order to analyse the power consumption mechanism. These protocols are implemented and evaluated to foregather the most reliable and efficient protocol. Analyses are done with the main emphasis to achieve energy efficiency. Performance evaluation is done based on metrics such as energy consumption, network lifetime, time to live, the amount of current utilized, cost of the battery, drain count, etc.
