Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

by Zygmunt J. Haas, Jing Deng, Ben Liang, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, S. Sajama , 2002
"... A mobile ad hoc network is a relatively new term for an old technology - a network that does not rely on pre-existing infrastructure. Roots of this technology could be traced back to the early 1970s with the DARPA PRNet and the SURAN projects. The new twitch is the application of this technology in ..."

. This survey attempts to summarize the state-ofthe -art of the ad hoc networking technology in four areas: routing, medium access control, multicasting, and security. Where possible, comparison between the proposed protocols is also discussed.

Medium Access Control with Coordinated Adaptive Sleeping for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Wei Ye, John Heidemann, Deborah Estrin - IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking , 2004
"... This paper proposes S-MAC, a medium access control (MAC) protocol designed for wireless sensor networks. Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. A network of these devices will collaborate for a common application such as environmental monitoring. We expect senso ..."

Energy Conserving Routing in Wireless Ad-hoc Networks

by Jae-hwan Chang, Leandros Tassiulas , 2000
"... An ad-hoc network of wireless static nodes is considered as it arises in a rapidly deployed, sensor based, monitoring system. Information is generated in certain nodes and needs to reach a set of designated gateway nodes. Each node may adjust its power within a certain range that determines the set ..."

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 ..."

SEAD: Secure Efficient Distance Vector Routing for Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

by Yih-Chun Hu, David B. Johnson, Adrian Perrig , 2003
"... An ad hoc network is a collection of wireless computers (nodes), communicating among themselves over possibly multihop paths, without the help of any infrastructure such as base stations or access points. Although many previous ad hoc network routing protocols have been based in part on distance vec ..."

Intrusion Detection in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks

by Yongguang Zhang, Wenke Lee , 2000
"... As the recent denial-of-service attacks on several major Internet sites have shown us, no open computer network is immune from intrusions. The wireless ad-hoc network is particularly vulnerable due to its features of open medium, dynamic changing topology, cooperative algorithms, lack of centralized ..."

Investigating the Energy Consumption of a Wireless Network Interface in an Ad Hoc Networking Environment

by Laura Marie Feeney, Martin Nilsson - In IEEE Infocom , 2001
"... Energy-aware design and evaluation of network protocols requires knowledge of the energy consumption behavior of actual wireless interfaces. But little practical information is available about the energy consumption behavior of well-known wireless network interfaces and device specifications do not ..."

This paper describes a series of experiments which obtained detailed measurements of the energy consumption of an IEEE 802.11 wireless network interface operating in an ad hoc networking environment. The data is presented as a

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

by Yih-chun Hu , 2002
