Most of the nodes in ad hoc networks rely on batteries, which requires energy saving.
Hence, numerous energy-efficient routing algorithms have been proposed for solving this …

Opportunistic routing (OR) has received much attention as a new routing paradigm due to its
efficient utilization of broadcasting and spacial diversity of the wireless medium. Although …

Opportunistic routing is widely known to have substantially better performance than unicast
routing in wireless networks with lossy links. However, wireless sensor networks are usually …

Opportunistic networks (OppNets) refer to a number of wireless nodes opportunistically
communicating with each other in a form of “Store–Carry–Forward”. This occurs when they …

Unlike traditional wireless routing protocols which use a single fixed path, opportunistic
routing explicitly takes advantage of the broadcast nature of wireless communications by …

Opportunistic routing (OR) copes with the unreliable transmissions by exploiting the
broadcast nature of the wireless medium and spatial diversity of the multi-hop wireless …

Opportunistic Routing (OR) is adapted to improve the performance of low Duty-cycled
Wireless Sensor Networks by exploiting its broadcast nature. In contrast to traditional …

Opportunistic routing schemes that exploit the broadcast nature of wireless transmissions for
selecting the best next-hop at that instant among a set of candidates are being actively …

This article examines the evolution of routing protocols for intermittently connected ad hoc
networks and discusses the trend toward socialbased routing protocols. A survey of current …

Due to recent advances in wireless technologies such as 3G, Bluetooth, WiFi, to name a few,
a pragmatic evolution of the generic mobile ad hoc networks paradigm (so-called …
