Ad hoc Network is self-configurable, infrastructure-less multi-hop wireless networks,
characterized by their frequent topology changes and the need for dynamic routing protocols …

Many routing protocols exist for mobile ad hoc networks. To select the most appropriate
protocol, evaluation of candidate protocols must be performed with respect to a specific …

Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) is a wireless network in which data is transferred in a
forwarding direction from the source node to the destination node via multiple intermediate …

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are self-configuring networks of nodes connected via
wireless without the use of any existing network infrastructure. In MANETs, each node acts …

Ad hoc networks have the notable capability of enabling spontaneous networks. These
networks are self-initializing, self-configuring, and self-maintaining, even though the …

MANET is an infrastructure less wireless network. The on demand routing protocol AODV
provides an efficient performance in the routing process of the ad hoc networks. The …

As devices with wireless networking become more pervasive, mobile ad hoc networks are
becoming increasingly important, motivating the development of highly scalable ad hoc …

Random loss in wireless ad hoc networks derives from two main causes: lossy wireless links
and node mobility. Packet loss and link breakage can dramatically degrade the performance …

This dissertation presents the (α, t)-Cluster—a framework for routing in wireless ad-hoc
networks—a class of network architecture that is characterized by its dynamic topology and …

Ad hoc networks are characterized by a lack of infrastructure, and by a random and quickly
changing network topology; thus the need for a robust dynamic routing protocol that can …
