Support for QoS is integral to the design of ad-hoc networks. Fluctuations in channel quality
effect the QoS metrics on each link and the whole end-to-end route. In addition, the …

The chapter contains an overview of existing QoS solutions for multi-hop ad-hoc networks.
Firstly, an introduction and short motivation are presented. The authors present an analysis …

Abstract Mobile Ad Hoc Networks represent future generation wireless networks, with a high
degree of versatility and robustness, capable of being deployed quickly and economically at …

Due to resource constraints and dynamic topology of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs),
supporting quality of service (QoS) in MANETs is a challenging task. Although lots of …

A multihop wireless ad hoc network consists of a number of nodes that form a dynamic
topology with ad hoc wireless links among neighboring nodes. These nodes are typically …

Due to the bandwidth constraint and dynamic topology of Mobile Ad hoc NETworks
(MANET), supporting Quality of Service (QoS) in MANETs is a challenging task. A lot of …

The maturity of wireless technologies on the one hand, and the evolution of applications on
the other hand, justify the introduction of Quality of Service (QoS) in ad-hoc networks. Much …

Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) applications such as multimedia applications, audio/video
conferencing, VOIP and webcasting need uninterrupted, stringent and inflexible Quality of …

The general field of mobile ad hoc networking is still in its infancy. Particularly, the challenge
of providing Quality‐of‐Service (QoS) support for ad hoc networks is an open problem and …

With the increasing widespread use of wireless technologies, Quality of service (QoS)
provisioning in ad hoc networks remains a challenging task. Good scalability of the QoS …
