One of the primary issues with MANET is power optimization and utilization because it relies on the node's internal battery power to operate the wireless network. The performance of the MANET is also affected by one of the parameters of energy consumption and utilization. Each operation in the MANET requires some amount of energy to complete. This article elaborated on MANET power management from its inception to the present, as well as doing comparison research to recommend new methods for improving MANET power utilization. This study examines MANET power management options in terms of numerous parameter metrics, including Mobility Aware, Clustering, Topology, Transmission Range, QOS, and link-based. Finally, the methodologies used in MANET power management and performance factor improvement were summarised. To surpass all performance indicators in MANET utilization, new manipulative tactics are necessary. The innovative method is the most effective
