In the continuously and rapidly evolving area of wireless communication, the field of wireless sensor networks (WSN) comes into the picture as a very hot area of research in all its aspects. WSN is a multi-hop network that is actually one type of ad hoc networks. However, WSN draws the special attention of researchers due to the fact that it exhibits more constraints and critical conditions tha...

Ad-hoc networks are a key in the evolution of wireless networks. Ad-hoc networks are typically composed of equal nodes, which communicate over wireless links without any central control. Ad-hoc wireless networks inherit the traditional problems of wireless and mobile communications, such as bandwidth optimisation, power control and transmission quality enhancement. In addition, the multi-hop na...

Wireless ad hoc networks are characterized by random location of nodes, and the routes are generally multihop. A quantitative understanding of the relation between source-to-destination Euclidean distance and the hop count could provide us the knowledge about important network parameters such as granularity of localization, traffic load, end-to-end delay, delay jitter, and transmit power consum...

Most peer-to-peer file storage sharing systems work on wired networks. Due to the multi-hop wireless communication nature in ad-hoc networks, the development of mobile ad-hoc network file storage sharing system faces many challenges. In this paper, a hypothetical partitionable mobile file system (PMFS) is proposed. This new PMFS is a distributed file storing/sharing system built on partitionabl...

Ad-Hoc wireless networks are self-organizing multi-hop wireless networks. Mobile ad hoc networks have some challenges like the design of an efficient routing protocol. The multipath routing protocol with load balancing provides a solution for the congestion network. Ad Hoc networks are setup as needed since they do not depend on the infrastructure. Ad Hoc networks are self–organizing multi hop ...

Mobile ad hoc networks are dynamically organized by a collection of wireless mobile nodes. The mobile nodes in ad hoc networks can move arbitrarily thus the topology of network changes dynamically. Due to the properties of communication medium in wireless networks, unidirectional links may exist between mobile nodes thus results in the difficulty of link utilization and routing. In this paper, ...

Effective Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) require QoS capabilities that provide the fault tolerance and fast recovery mechanism when there is a link failure.since MANET is a dynamic topology in nature,the protocols used in multi-hop networks maintain the routing stability. In this paper,an efficient call admission control scheme is used to maintain the flows in the network,The consumption of ba...

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are prone to a variety of attacks due to their unique characteristics such as dynamic topology, open wireless medium, absence of infrastructure, multi hop nature and resource constraints. Any node in mobile ad hoc networks operates not only as end terminal but both as an intermediate router and client. In this way, multi-hop communication occurs in MANETs and thu...

Understanding the factors that affect the path connection availability in multi-hop ad hoc networks can help to understand the path stability under various degrees of system dynamics. In addition, the connection availability of paths can be used as a global measure for the performance of ad hoc networks. To the best of our knowledge, there is no analytical study that provides a closed form solu...
