In this paper, we consider the issue of constructing an energy-efficient virtual network backbone in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) for broadcasting applications using directiona...
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are dynamic networks formed on-the-fly as mobile nodes move in and out of each others’ transmission ranges. In general, the mobile ad hoc networki...
—Using directional antennas to conserve bandwidth and energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks has attracted much attention of the research community in recent years. Howev...
— The connected dominating set (CDS) has been extensively used for routing and broadcast in mobile ad hoc networks. While existing CDS protocols are successful in constructing CD...
