—Packet based wireless networks have provided high data rates, and the desire for ubiquitous wireless computing is growing rapidly. To accommodate these demands, wireless systems...
This paper presents a mathematical framework for the evaluation of the performance of proactive and reactive routing protocols in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). This unified fram...

Most of the proposed algorithms in ad hoc networks assume homogeneous nodes with similar transmission range and capabilities. However, in heterogeneous ad hoc network, it is not ne...
Position-based routing protocols in ad hoc networks combine a forwarding strategy with a recovery algorithm. The former fails when there are void regions or physical obstacles tha...
A mobile node in ad hoc networks may move arbitrarily and acts as a router and a host simultaneously. Such a characteristic makes nodes in MANET vulnerable to potential attacks. Th...
