Abstract— In this paper we use an information-theoretic formulation for characterizing the minimum routing overhead of link state routing in a mobile ad hoc network. We formulate...
Since the physical topology of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) is generally unstable, an appealing approach is the construction of a stable and robust virtual topology or backbone...
In this research, we first investigate the cross-layer interaction between TCP and routing protocols in the IEEE 802.11 ad hoc network. On-demand ad hoc routing protocols respond t...
—An ad hoc network is a multi-hop wireless network formed by a collection of mobile nodes without the intervention of fixed infrastructure. Limited bandwidth and a high degree o...
Wireless ad hoc networks consist of hundreds to thousands of mobile nodes that are powered by batteries. To prolong the network operational time, energy conservation in such netwo...
