The inability of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) deployments to scale beyond about 100
nodes, in practice, has traditionally been blamed on insufficient network capacity for …

One wireless network architecture that has received a lot of attention recently is the mobile
ad hoc network (MANET). It is attractive because the network can be quickly deployed …

The performance implications of link or node failures in Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET)
networks are studied in details. Several recovery mechanisms are proposed to reduce the …

A key factor deciding the performance of a rout-ing protocol in mobile ad hoc networks is the
manner in which it adapts to route changes caused by mobility. Exploiting the intuition that a …

Node mobility plays an important role in the routing performance for MANETs. Many
protocols provide parameters to adapt to different levels of mobility, but this is a global …

In mobile ad hoc networks, node mobility causes links between nodes to break frequently,
thus terminating the lifetime of the routes containing those links. An alternative route has to …

The ability of a Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) to provide adequate quality of service
(QoS) is limited by the ability of the underlying routing protocol to provide consistent …

MANETs (Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) are self-contained systems that can function without the
use of centralized controllers, pre-configured paths/routes, or advanced communication …

Wireless systems, and mobile ad hoc networks in particular, are more likely to experience
transmission and routing errors than their wired counterpart. Factors like the lack of …

With today's rapidly improving link-layer technology, and the widespread adoption of
wireless networking, the creation of large-scale ad hoc networks could be construed as all …
