In multi-hop wireless networks, every node is expected to forward packets for the benefit of other nodes. Yet, if each node is its own authority, then it may selfishly deny packe...
Mobility in ad hoc networks causes link failures, which in turn result in packet losses. TCP attributes these losses to congestion. This results in frequent TCP retransmission time...
