Drones interconnected in a multi-hop ad-hoc fashion and forming a Flying Ad-Hoc Network (FANET) can be used for accomplishing a lot of different tasks. this context, a key role is played by routing protocols in order to allow data exchange following the best path between source and destination. The contribution of this work is to explore and compare two different typologies of routing protocols such as the classical protocols based on link state or those based on heuristics approach such as bio-inspired (swarm intelligence) ones that make use of real life behaviors in order to resolve complex problems. These new kinds of protocols based on heuristic approach can be lighter and more efficient in comparison with classical protocols and leading to a sub-optimal solution, in a few time and with a more efficient resource consumption remaining always able to resolve in a satisfactory way the specific task.
