Power-Aware Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

by Mike Woo, Suresh Singh, C. S. Raghavendra , 1998
"... In this paper we present a case for using new power-aware metrics for determining routes in wireless ad hoc networks. We present five different metrics based on battery power consumption at nodes. We show that using these metrics in a shortest-cost routing algorithm reduces the cost/packet of rout ..."

A Review of Current Routing Protocols for Ad-Hoc Mobile Wireless Networks

by Elizabeth M. Royer, Chai-Keong Toh
"... An ad-hoc mobile network is a collection of mobile nodes that are dynamically and arbitrarily located in such a manner that the interconnections between nodes are capable of changing on a continual basis. In order to facilitate communication within the network, a routing protocol is used to discove ..."

Adaptive clustering for mobile wireless networks

by Chunhung Richard Lin, Mario Gerla - IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications , 1997
"... This paper describes a self-organizing, multihop, mobile radio network, which relies on a code division access scheme for multimedia support. In the proposed network architecture, nodes are organized into nonoverlapping clusters. The clusters are independently controlled and are dynamically reconfig ..."

The broadcast storm problem in a mobile ad hoc network

by Sze-yao Ni, Yu-chee Tseng, Yuh-shyan Chen, Jang-ping Sheu - ACM Wireless Networks , 2002
"... Broadcasting is a common operation in a network to resolve many issues. In a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) in par-ticular, due to host mobility, such operations are expected to be executed more frequently (such as finding a route to a particular host, paging a particular host, and sending an alarm s ..."

Secure Routing for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

by Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Zygmunt Haas - MOBILE COMPUTING AND COMMUNICATIONS REVIEW , 2002
"... For such self-organizing infrastructures as mobile ad hoc networks , envisioned to operate in an open, collaborative, and highly volatile environment, the importance of secu- rity cannot be underrated. The provision of comprehen- sive secure communication mandates that both route dis- covery and dat ..."

Location-Aided Routing (LAR) in mobile ad hoc networks

by Young-bae Ko, Nitin H. Vaidya - IN: INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MOBILE COMPUTING AND NETWORKING (MOBICOM’98 , 1998
"... A mobile ad hoc network consists of wireless hosts that may move often. Movement of hosts results in a change in routes, requiring some mechanism for determining new routes. Several routing protocols have already been proposed for ad hoc networks. This paper suggests an approach to utilize location ..."

Geography-informed Energy Conservation for Ad Hoc Routing

by Ya Xu, John Heidemann, Deborah Estrin - ACM MOBICOM , 2001
"... We introduce a geographical adaptive fidelity (GAF) algorithm that reduces energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks. GAF conserves energy by identifying nodes that are equivalent from a routing perspective and then turning off unnecessary nodes, keeping a constant level of routing fidelity. GA ..."

GPS-free positioning in mobile ad hoc networks

by Srdjan Capkun, Maher Hamdi, Jean-Pierre Hubaux - Cluster Computing , 2001
"... this paper, we describe an algorithm for the positioning of nodes in an ad hoc network that does not use GPS. The algorithm provides a position information to the nodes in the scenarios where an infrastructure does not exist and GPS cannot be used. GPS-free positioning is also desirable, when the GP ..."

Ariadne: A secure on-demand routing protocol for ad hoc networks

by Yih-chun Hu , 2002

An ad hoc network is a group of wireless mobile computers (or nodes), in which individual nodes cooperate by forwarding packets for each other to allow nodes to communicate beyond direct wireless transmission range. Prior research in ad hoc networking has generally studied the routing problem in a n ..."
