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...
— Group Communication services have become more and more important in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The use of multicast transmission techniques in MANETs has been shown to ha...
IEEE 802.11 MAC, called the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), employs carrier sensing to effectively avoid collisions, but this makes it difficult to maximally reuse the sp...
Abstract--Mobile wireless Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) naturally support a traffic mix of elastic and real-time flows but the shared nature and lossy properties of the radio medium mak...
Bluetooth technology is specially designed for the wireless personal area networks to replace cable. Several challenges exist in Bluetooth scatternet formation and routing, since ...
