… We propose an approach to topology control based on the principle of maintaining the
number of neighbors of every node equal to or slightly below a specific value k. The approach …

… In Section 2, we describe various aspects relevant to modeling ad hoc networks. In Section
3, we discuss topology control. Since the nodes of an ad hoc network are often associated …

… The main result of this paper is a hybrid topology control framework, termed Cluster-based
Topology Control (CLTC for short) to facilitate topology control for large scale ad hoc …

… of isotropic antennas and thus only adjust the transmission power of each node. We propose
a distributed topology control mechanism for ad hoc networks with directional antennas that …

… in wireless ad hoc networks. Contrary to most of the literature on topology control which
focuses on reducing energy consumption, in this paper we tackle the topology control problem …

… Some of the topology control problems considered in this paper are NP-complete. For such
problems, we study approximation algorithms. In this context, an approximation algorithm …

… In this section, we compare the ANGTC with existing topology control protocols for mobile
nodes using the ns2 simulator [8]. For each test case, we simulated 50 networks, each with …

… In this Section, we will consider several problems related to topology control in stationary
ad hoc networks. The generalization of some of these problems to the more complicated …

In this paper, we address the Topology control with Cooperative Communication (TCC)
problem in ad hoc wireless networks. Cooperative communication is a novel model introduced …

… for topology control in large ad hoc and sensor networks. First… then no topology control
algorithm can keep a large network … that a very large ad hoc or sensor network is unable to …
