One way to improve the throughput of a wireless ad hoc network at the media access (MAC) layer is to allow concurrent transmission among neighboring nodes as much as possible. In ...
In this paper, we outline a simple approach, called ROAR, that enables the Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol to strengthen its routes by recruiting neighbors...
Recent research results show that a wireless ad hoc network can exploit controlled node mobility to reduce communication energy consumption. Node movement, however, may consume a ...
With multipath routing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), a source can establish multiple routes to a destination for routing data. In MANETs, mulitpath routing can be used to pr...
Carrier Sense Multiple Access / ID Countdown (CSMA/IC) is a collision-free ad hoc MAC protocol. CSMA/IC avoids simultaneous medium access by competing with a local unique ID assig...
