Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are particularly suited for scenarios that demand rapid
deployment of a communication system without any existing network resources. For …

This paper proposes a local flooding-based on-demand routing protocol for mobile ad hoc
networks to reduce the flooding overhead and offers effective alternative paths between the …

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) consists of a set of mobile hosts that can communicate
with each other without the assistance of base stations. In MANETs, the high mobility of …

This paper tackles the routing issue in mobile ad hoc networks by introducing a novel
approach. The most challenging issue, when designing a routing protocol in this context, is …

Decreasing the route rediscovery time process in reactive routing protocols is challenging in
mobile ad hoc networks. Links between nodes are continuously established and broken …

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are characterized by random, multi‐hop topologies that
do not have a centralized coordinating entity or a fixed infrastructure that may change rapidly …

Multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) consist of nodes and links that are vulnerable
to frequent failures. In order to provide fault-tolerance in the network, it is important that the …

Reliable routing of packets in a Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) has always been a major
concern. The open medium and the susceptibility of the nodes of being fault-prone make the …

Nodes in a mobile ad hoc network are often vulnerable to failures. The failures could be
either due to fading effects, battery drainage, or as a result of compromised nodes that do …

There is a fundamental difference between wireless and wired networks, since the latter
employ point-to-point communication while the former use broadcast transmission as the …
