— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
Abstract: For evaluating dynamics of mobile ad-hoc networks at least three different layers have to be distinguished: the application layer, the protocol layer, and the network lay...
— It has been a big challenge to develop routing protocol that can meet different application needs and optimize routing paths according to the topology change in mobile ad hoc n...
— Group communications are important in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). Multicast is an efficient method to implement the group communications. However, it is challenging to imp...
Abstract— An ad hoc wireless network is an autonomous selforganizing system of mobile nodes connected by wireless links where nodes not in direct range communicate via intermedia...
