Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
IEEE 802.11 has become the main technology in local area wireless networks. However, performance anomalies, especially, in terms of fairness, arise in its use in ad hoc networks. ...
In this article, we explore modified versions of Multicast Overlay Spanning Tree algorithms (MOST) to support quality of service for wireless ad hoc networks. These algorithms (Q-...
Abstract—Over the past years, location-based routing protocols have been studied extensively in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). However, how to efficiently provide the location ...
A black hole attack is a severe attack that can be easily employed against routing in mobile ad hoc networks. A black hole is a malicious node that falsely replies for any route r...
