A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) consists of a group of mobile nodes (MNs) that communicate with each other without the presence of infrastructure. MANET has a changing topology due to the movement of mobile nodes in the network. These mobile nodes are battery operated and require battery resources for communication purpose, also these resources are limited. So, some energy efficient routing protocols are used in MANET to provide battery resources to mobile nodes. This protocols help to reduce the power consumption of nodes and also lengthen the battery life to improve the life time of the network. In this paper, review on the energy efficient routing protocol i.e. LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) is introduced, using this protocol, we can improve the network performance by reducing the power consumption of mobile nodes in the network.
