A generic stochastic model with only two input parameters is introduced to evaluate the
message delay in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) where nodes may relay messages …

A stochastic model is introduced that accurately models the message delay in mobile ad hoc
networks where nodes relay messages and the networks are sparsely populated. The model …

Recent work of Gupta and Kumar (2000) has shown that in a multi-hop wireless network the
throughput capacity per source-destination pair goes to zero as the node density increases …

We study the asymptotic throughput capacity and delay in mobile ad hoc networks following
the 2-hop relaying algorithm proposed by Grossglauser and Tse (2001). We assume the …

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are strongly impacted by the mobility of the ad hoc
nodes. Mobility models help engineers to abstract the changes of position in network users …

We consider a mobile ad hoc network consisting of three types of nodes: source, destination,
and relay nodes. All the nodes are moving over a bounded region with possibly different …

Mobility plays a major role in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) since it stresses networking
tasks such as routing on one hand but aids to increase the network capacity and to …

Mobile ad hoc networks are characterized by a lack of a fixed infrastructure and by node
mobility. In these networks data transfer can be improved by using mobile nodes as relay …

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 …

In this paper, we study the delay and capacity trade-offs for wireless ad hoc networks with
random mobility. We consider some simple distributed scheduling and relaying protocols …
