Advancement in the field of internet due to wireless networking technologies gives rise to many new applications. Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is one of the most promising fields for research and development of wireless network. As the popularity of mobile device and wireless networks significantly increased over the past years, wireless ad-hoc networks has now become one of the most vibrant a...

Abstract— Recent advances in wireless and micro electronic communications have enabled the development of a new type of wireless network called mobile ad hoc networks. MANETs are currently the greatest innovation in the field of telecommunications. A Mobile Ad hoc Wireless Network (MANET) is a collection of autonomous nodes that communicate with each other by forming a multi-hop network, mainta...

It has been shown that in a mobile ad hoc wireless network per node throughput remains constant as the number of nodes approaches infinity, when the nodes lie in a disk of unit area. However, this requires that some packets are delivered indirectly by a relay node. In this paper, we prove, in the same setup, that D(k)2 (log k), where D(k) is the expected delay time of a mobile ad hoc wireless n...

Communications and communication protocols play an important role in mobile robot systems. They enable the latter to address many real world applications. Since the advent of highperformance wireless local area network (WLAN) and ad hoc networking technology at relatively low cost, their use for wireless communications among mobile robots has become a practical proposition. However, in a large ...

Routing is a basic step for data exchange. In wireless ad-hoc networks each node acts as a router and executes a routing protocol. Wireless ad-hoc networks are highly resource constrained in terms of network topology, memory and computation power. The reliable data transfer is a difficult task in wireless ad-hoc networks because of resource constraints. A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a kind...

Simulation and emulation are popular means for evaluating wireless Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) protocols. Since MANETs are highly dependant on their physical environment, these techniques offer only a partial understanding of factors that may influence performance. Deploying real-life MANETs is therefore an indispensable complementary step for the advancement of MANETs. This paper presents ...

“Anywhere” and, in particular, “anyhow”: these are the two best words that can describe an ad hoc wireless network that is due to the increasing demand for connectivity in such an information society. Ad hoc wireless networks can be described as dynamic multihop wireless networks with mobile nodes. However, the mobility condition can be relaxed, and we can consider an ad hoc wireless network as...
