Integrating MANET and Internet extends the coverage area and application domain of
MANET and thus provide ubiquitous Internet access. This integration allows nodes attached …

This paper proposes a QoS-based gateway selection mechanism to select an appropriate
gateway based on three QoS metrics: traffic load of gateway, path quality from MANET node …

With the advent of future wireless networks consisting of an integration of different
heterogeneous wireless technologies, the interconnection of MANETs to fixed IP networks is …

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 …

ABSTRACT A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) consists of wireless mobile nodes without
having a fixed infrastructure. The communication between these mobile nodes is carried out …

The integration of mobile ad hoc networks into IP-based access networks demands the
presence of a gateway which is responsible for propagating some configuration parameters …

When a node in an ad hoc network wants Internet access, it needs to obtain information
about the available gateways and it should select the most appropriate of them. In this work …

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 …

When a wireless node in an ad hoc network needs Internet access, it must select one
gateway from the information sent in the Modified Router Advertisement (MRA) messages. In …

Recently, much attention is drawn for integrating MANET with Internet in order to extend
network coverage and applications domain of ad hoc networks. In this paper, we propose a …
