The widespread use of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) in many fields of applications has led to the continuous development of routing protocols which can perform well when deployed...
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...
Traditionally, the routing problem is addressed at the network layer, an approach that has been extended to the wireless realm. In wireless multihop networks, however, strict laye...
The growing popularity of ad hoc networks is making their limitations, such as bandwidth and power restrictions, more apparent. As a result, techniques that reduce power consumpti...
Ad hoc networks represent a key factor in the evolution of wireless communications. These networks typically consist of equal nodes that communicate without central control, inter...
