MANETs are capable of forming wireless network that can setup a transmission range
between the nodes in the network. In this study we propose an efficient power and rate …

Mobile Ad Hoc networks find its applications in many areas and are useful for many cases.
But it faces some problems due to limited battery power of the mobile nodes. Since all …

Maximizing throughput and battery power are the key factors to design an efficient power
control MAC protocol. Power management in MANET is a critical issue, since these are …

In this paper, we propose an Improved Power Control MAC (IPCM) protocol which improves
the throughput and yields energy saving. This protocol sends all the packets RTS, CTS …

To improve the system performance of ad hoc networks, researchers have proposed many
approaches including power control mechanism. Power control is a critical issue to …

Power control is a critical issue to implement Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). This paper
presents a novel power control protocol, namely the Optimistic Power Control MAC (OPCM) …

MANETs have wide range of popularity in the ad hoc communication systems. The
optimized communication strategies are more crucial for these types of networks by …

A mobile ad-hoc network is a collection of mobile nodes forming an ad-hoc network without
the assistance of any centralized structure. Since the devices used in an ad hoc network are …

Energy conservation is important for mobile ad-hoc networks where devices are expected to
work for longer periods of time without the need for charging their batteries. High probability …

ABSTRACT Power Control in Mobile Ad Hoc networks is a critical issue, since nodes are
powered by batteries. The main idea of power control schemes is to use different power …
