To integrate mobile ad hoc networks with the fixed Internet, it is important for mobile nodes to
obtain the information of available gateways. To achieve this purpose, gateways periodically …

Gateway discovery algorithm is a fundamental protocol for interconnecting mobile ad hoc
network (MANET) with the Internet. In most existing schemes, each gateway node …

Mobile ad hoc networks are autonomous, infrastructureless networks that can establish low
cost, limited range networks for the purpose of sharing data between devices. When an ad …

Since gateways are generally used to integrate the Internet with MANET (Mobile Ad Hoc
Networks), gateway discovery is important for MANET mobile nodes to obtain the route to a …

The overall performance of hybrid ad hoc networks, which is the integration of ad hoc
networks and fixed IP networks like the Internet is affected heavily by the discovery and …

Internet gateways are used to access the Internet services from the Mobile Ad Hoc Network
(MANET). Internet gateways need to be discovered and selected in an appropriate way to …

In the last years, many authors have addressed the problem of interconnecting mobile ad
hoc networks (MANET) to the Internet, via one or more attachment points called gateways …

One of the key overhead components affecting the overall performance of hybrid ad hoc
networks is the discovery and selection of Internet gateways. We develop an analytical …

A gateway discovery mechanism is necessary to make possible that wireless nodes in an ad
hoc network route their packets towards a fixed network. Real-time applications have quality …

Gateway discovery is a fundamental process in interconnecting mobile ad hoc network with
the Internet. Traditional gateway discovery algorithms adopt the method of periodically …
