Traditionally, the routing problem is addressed at the network layer, an approach that has
been extended to the wireless realm. In wireless multihop networks, however, strict layer …

This paper uses measurements from two deployed wireless ad hoc networks to illustrate the
effects of link loss rates on routing protocol performance. Measurements of these networks …

For multihop wireless networks, a fundamental question is whether it is advantageous to
route over many short hops (short-hop routing) or over a smaller number of longer hops …

The present invention addresses the issue of whether mobility can be used in a way that not
only can serve to obtain a close-to-optimal throughput but also can serve to provide low …

This paper contains an overview of the discussions on future research directions within the
subject of ad hoc networking, held at the Wireless World Research Forum meetings during …

Existing ad hoc routing protocols supports multiple radio interfaces, but they are designed
for radio interfaces with similar properties. In contrast, in a typical usage scenario the …

Ad hoc networks have the notable capability of enabling spontaneous networks. These
networks are self-initializing, self-configuring, and self-maintaining, even though the …

Existing routing protocols for wireless ad hoc networks assume a homogeneous network
with either omnidirectional antennas or smart (beamforming) antennas. However it is …

This paper presents a dual method of closed-form analysis and lightweight simulation that
enables an evaluation of the performance of mobile ad hoc networks that is more realistic …

Most MANET (Mobile Ad hoc NETwork) research assumes idealized propagation models.
Experimental results have shown significant divergence from simulation results due to the …
