Most of the routing protocols in wireless ad hoc networks, such as DSR, assume nodes are trustworthy and cooperative. This assumption renders wireless ad hoc networks vulnerable to...
We propose a novel localized algorithm that constructs a bounded degree and planar spanner for wireless ad hoc networks modeled by unit disk graph (UDG). Every node only has to kn...
Abstract—Many routing protocols have been proposed for wireless ad hoc networks, and most of them are based on some variants of flooding. Thus many routing messages are propagat...
A delay-bounded service in wireless ad hoc networks is challenging, as ad hoc networks do not provide any type of guarantees. Several protocols have been proposed to support appli...
— In wireless ad hoc networks, nodes communicate with far off destinations using intermediate nodes as relays. Since wireless nodes are energy constrained, it may not be in the b...
Abstract Key issues of wireless ad hoc networks are auto-configuration and flexibility. Due to mobility, wireless networks are subject to frequent splits and merges. In many situ...

Topology management schemes conserve energy in wireless ad hoc networks by identifying redundant nodes that may turn off their radios or other components while maintaining connec...
Distance vector routing protocols (e.g., RIP) have been widely used on the Internet, and are being adapted to emerging wireless ad hoc networks. However, it is well-known that exis...
Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless ad hoc networks since batteries are the only energy source to power the nodes. One major metric for energy conservation is to r...
Using directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks is an attractive issue due to its potential advantages such as spatial reuse, low power consumption and low chance of interfe...
