Due to the advantages of high mobility, high maneuverability and high probability of line of
sight (LoS) transmission, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have attracted much interest in …

Broadcast is the process of sending a message from one node to all other nodes in an ad
hoc network. It is a fundamental operation for communication in ad hoc networks as it allows …

In this chapter, area‐based methods are reclassified within other groups, whereas neighbor‐
knowledge methods are divided into clustering‐based, selecting forwarding neighbors, and …

An IVC (Inter-vehicle communication) network is a type of mobile ad hoc networks (MANET)
in which high-speed vehicles send, receive, and forward packets via other vehicles on the …

Wireless ad hoc networks are dynamically organized by a collection of wireless mobile
hosts. In ad hoc networks, any pre-established wired or wireless infrastructures and the …

Delay tolerant networks are a class of networks characterized by intermittent connectivity,
long delays, and noncontemporaneous end-to-end paths between nodes. Standard Internet …

Backoff algorithms have been introduced to solve the problem of collisions over networks. In
the case of MANETs, extra point had to be taken into account while developing backoff …

Abstract Recently, the Wi-Fi peer-to-peer (Wi-Fi P2P) technology is discussed to be able to
support communications in infrastructure-less network scenarios. In many of such …

This thesis presents a novel approach to several problems in intelligent transportation
systems using collaborative driving coordination. With inter-vehicle communication and …

Seamless Connectivity in Vehicular Networks, and Vehicle Security is attracting discussion
of research issues related to the integration and cooperation of heterogeneous wireless …
