QoS in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

Wireless Personal Communications, 2019
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) consists of mobile nodes communicating over wireless channels. Routing in MANETs is very challenging due to the random mobility of nodes and unreliability of wireless channels. Therefore most of the existing routing algorithms make only the best effort to find routes for communication but do not provide any performance ...

An ad hoc network with mobile backbones

2002 IEEE International Conference on Communications. Conference Proceedings. ICC 2002 (Cat. No.02CH37333), 2003
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is usually assumed to be homogeneous, where each mobile node shares the same radio capacity. However, a homogeneous ad hoc network suffers from poor scalability. Recent research has demonstrated its performance bottleneck both theoretically and through simulation experiments and testbed measurement Building a physically ...

Actors for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

2004
Today mobile devices can interact with their environment through wireless communication. Wireless communication has a limited communication range, which introduces two major problems, currently not captured in distributed middleware. Firstly, they are less reliable and secondly they are extremely dynamic.

Security in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

IEEE Security & Privacy Magazine, 2008
One of the most critical roles security researchers have is keeping up with new technologies and considering the security implications that go along with them-essentially, ensuring that security is "baked in" to new ideas from the earliest possible moment. Because of this, researchers have had significant interest in the field of mobile ad hoc networks

Control of mobile ad hoc networks

2006 IEEE Information Theory Workshop, 2006
We show that the per node overhead of traffic control in a mobile ad hoc network with N nodes with density ν moving at average speed ν can be made proportional to √νNν). In this case route between source and destination has a bounded strectch factor compared to optimal route.

Multicasting in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

2009
The success of wireless ad hoc networks and the increasing interest in multimedia applications explain the need of multicast protocols adapted to the wireless environment. In this chapter, we first introduce the design considerations for a multicast protocol in a wireless ad hoc network.

Mobile ad hoc networking and the IETF

ACM SIGMOBILE Mobile Computing and Communications Review, 2006
This article is part of a continuing series to discuss ongoing activities within the mobile ad hoc networking (MANET) working group (WG) of the IETF. This article provides a brief overview of recent events.

Managing mobile ad hoc networks

2004 IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium (IEEE Cat. No.04CH37507), 2004
Summary form only given. Tomorrow's mobile ad hoc networks emphasize adaptable and flexible networks that automatically adapt to the user's needs. Such adaptability and flexibility requires mobile networking capabilities significantly beyond what is possible with currently fielded technology.

Virtual Mobile Ad-hoc Networks

2013 IEEE 10th International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Sensor Systems, 2013
Ubiquitous use of MANETs (Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) is greatly hindered by the technological cap on broadcast distances. In this work we propose a method of extending the cover area of a MANETs by taking advantage of pre-existing mesh networks among routers.

Mobile ad hoc networking: imperatives and challenges

Ad Hoc Networks, 2003
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent complex distributed systems that comprise wireless mobile nodes that can freely and dynamically self-organize into arbitrary and temporary, ‘‘ad-hoc’’ network topologies, allowing people and devices to seamlessly internetwork in areas with no pre-existing communication infrastructure, e.g., disaster recovery ...
