Abstract—Position-based routing protocols use location information to refine the traditional packet flooding method in mobile ad hoc networks. They mainly focus on densely and ...
This paper presents ARC (Adaptive Range Control), a communication range control mechanism using directional antennas to be implemented across multiple layers. ARC uses directional...
Directional antennas in ad hoc networks offer many benefits compared with classical omnidirectional antennas. The most important include significant increase of spatial reuse, cov...
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...
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) provide rapidly deployable and self-configuring network capacity required in many critical applications, e.g., battlefields, disaster relief and ...
