In mobile ad hoc networks, node mobility causes links between nodes to break frequently, thus terminating the lifetime of the routes containing those links. An alternative route h...
— Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are seen as an essential technology to support future Pervasive Computing Scenarios and 4G networks. In a MANET, efficient support of multipoint...
Because of the heterogeneity in radio transceiver capabilities and influence of surroundings, unidirectional links arise in wireless mobile ad-hoc networks. Since most of existin...

— 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...
