We consider the problem of control traffic overhead in MANETs with long-lived connections, operating under a reactive routing protocol (e.g. AODV). In such settings, control traff...
We analyze the problem of reducing packet losses due to the authentication time which is required when an ad hoc node switches across different gateways in a mobile ad hoc network...
In reactive routing protocols, active routes for multihop connections retain their topological structure in spite of node movement over time. Unfortunately, node movements may mak...
A crucial issue for a mobile ad hoc network is the handling of a large number of nodes. As more nodes join the mobile ad hoc network, contention and congestion are more likely. Th...
: Virtual backbone-based routing is a promising approach for enhancing the routing efficiency in MANETs. To establish communication in the network, the virtual backbone nodes have ...
