Mobile ad hoc networking has been an active research area for several years. How to
stimulate cooperation among selfish mobile nodes, however, is not well addressed yet. In …

This book provides a comprehensive yet easy coverage of ad hoc and sensor networks and
fills the gap of existing literature in this growing field. It emphasizes that there is a major …

The popularity of wireless communication systems can be seen almost everywhere in the
form of cellular networks, WLANs, and WPANs. In addition, small portable devices have …

Few real-world applications of mobile ad hoc networks have been developed or deployed
outside the military environment, and no traces of actual node movement in a real ad hoc …

A recent class of approaches for enhancing the performance of cellular wireless data
networks has focused on improving the underlying network model. It has been shown that …

While several approaches have been proposed in literature for improving the performance
of wireless packet data networks, a recent class of approaches has focused on improving …

We propose a multi-hop wireless LAN architecture and demonstrate its benefits to wireless
clients. For this architecture, we define implementation paths that allow interoperation with …

The availability of cheaper, faster, and more reliable electronic components has stimulated
important advances in computing and communication technologies. Theoretical and …

Without sufficient nodes cooperating to provide relaying functions, a mobile ad hoc network
cannot function properly. Consequently various proposals have been made which provide …

Cognitive radio technology enables secondary users (SUs) to opportunistically use the
vacant licensed spectrum and significantly improves the utilization of spectrum resource …
