Broadcasting in ad hoc networks is required for many routing and other network-layer protocols to request information like routes or locations about destination nodes. Most of the...
—The Hop Distance based Routing Protocol (HDR) is an on-demand based routing protocol suited for mobile ad hoc networks integrated with wired networks. HDR considers an efficient...
—In a sensor network, data routing is tightly coupled to the needs of a sensing task, and hence the application semantics. This paper introduces the novel idea of information-dir...
Abstract—Cognitive radio (CR) technology enables the opportunistic use of the vacant licensed frequency bands, thereby improving the spectrum utilization. However, the CR operati...
This paper is motivated by the observation that current research in ad hoc networks mostly assumes a physically flat network architecture with the nodes having homogeneous charact...
