This paper proposes a location service to assist location-based routing protocols, realized through a novel Associativity-Based clustering protocol. The main goal of our scheme, w...
— Wireless mesh networks are a promising way to provide Internet access to fixed and mobile wireless devices. In mesh networks, traffic between mesh nodes and the Internet is r...

In most of the ad-hoc routing protocols, a static link lifetime (LL) is used for a newly discovered neighbors. Though this works well for networks with fixed infrastructures, it is...
—In Ad Hoc networking, cluster-based communication protocol can reduce large amount of flooding packets in route establishment process. However, the 802.11 medium access control ...
Routing protocol is a pivotal issue in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). Several routing protocols have been proposed to deal with the routing issue in MANETs. However, routing tur...
