Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
Ad-hoc networks consist of a set of mobile hosts that communicate using wireless links, without the use of other communication support facilities (such as base stations). The topo...

Reliability is a very important issue in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs). Shortest paths are usually used to route packets in MANETs. However, a shortest path may fail quickly, bec...
—Previous work on routing in MANETs has resulted in numerous routing protocols that aim at satisfying constraints such as minimum hop or low energy. Existing routing protocols of...

—The majority of the existing ad hoc wireless network routing protocols has a tendency to use the shortest single path from the source to the destination. However, in constantly ...
