Ad hoc networks rely on nodes forwarding each other’s packets, making trust and cooperation key issues for ensuring network performance. As long as all nodes in the network belo...
Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETS) are networks of mobile nodes that do not have a fixed infrastructure. Recent research in this field addresses ways of solving existing problems i...
Recently, several MAC protocols using directional antennas have been proposed for ad hoc networks, which are mainly evaluated by computer simulations. This paper develops a MAC pr...
—Flooding is one of the most fundamental operations in mobile ad hoc networks. Traditional implementation of flooding suffers from the problems of excessive redundancy of message...
