We present an analytical framework and statistical models to accurately characterize the
lifetime of a wireless link in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET). We show that the lifetime of a …

We present statistical models to accurately evaluate the distribution of the lifetime of wireless
links in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) in which nodes move randomly within …

We present statistical models to accurately evaluate the distribution of the lifetime of a
wireless link in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) in which nodes move randomly within …

We present an analytical framework and statistical models to accurately characterize the
lifetime of a wireless link and multi-hop paths in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). We show …

We study the effects of node mobility on the wireless links and protocol performance in
mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). First we examine the behavior of links through an …

Understanding link statistics in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is essential to design
adaptive routing protocols and achieve desired network performance. While much attention …

Recently mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are attracting increasing attention. Much work
has been done by using various simulations tools. In this paper, we evaluate the …

This paper proposes a Markov model of link connectivity for mobile ad hoc networks. Under
a random behavior, the model provides a unified approach to describe many different …

We develop a detailed approach to study how mobility impacts the performance of reactive
mobile ad hoc network routing protocols. In particular, we examine how the statistics of path …

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have inherently dynamic topologies. It is important to be
able to determine the reliability of the communication paths created under these difficult …
