The communication range of devices within a mobile ad hoc network is inherently restricted.
One way of enhancing the communication range of a mobile ad hoc network, is to …

Mobile users are expected to demand access to the Internet anywhere and anytime. In a
MANET context, a device which is about to connect to external hosts needs the route to the …

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 …

In the last years, many authors have addressed the problem of interconnecting mobile ad
hoc networks (MANET) to the Internet, via one or more attachment points called gateways …

Since gateways are generally used to integrate the Internet with MANET (Mobile Ad Hoc
Networks), gateway discovery is important for MANET mobile nodes to obtain the route to a …

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 an ad hoc network is connected to the Internet, it is important for the mobile nodes to
detect the available gateways providing access to the Internet. Therefore, a gateway …

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 …

Internet gateways are used for integration of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) with Internet to
increase its usability. Mobile nodes in MANET need to discover an Internet gateway to …

Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) consists of a set of mobile nodes which communicate
among them only using their wireless interface. In order to get connected with internet …
