An ad hoc network is a multi-hop wireless network of mobile nodes without the intervention of fixed infrastructure. Limited bandwidth and mobility require that ad hoc routing prot...
Energy is a scarce resource in ad hoc mobile networks, making energy-aware communication crucial. In the absence of a central controlling entity and due to its dynamic network top...
— Topology control is the problem of assigning power levels to the nodes of an ad hoc network so as to create a specified network topology while minimizing the energy consumptio...
The use of contention-based MAC protocols combined with hidden terminal problems make multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks much more sensitive to load and congestion than wired netw...
