Mobility increases the capacity of ad-hoc wireless networks

by Matthias Grossglauser, David Tse - IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING , 2002
"... The capacity of ad-hoc wireless networks is constrained by the mutual interference of concurrent transmissions between nodes. We study a model of an ad-hoc network where n nodes communicate in random source-destination pairs. These nodes are assumed to be mobile. We examine the per-session throughpu ..."

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 ..."

A Survey on Position-Based Routing in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

by Martin Mauve, Jörg Widmer, Hannes Hartenstein - IEEE Network , 2001
"... We present an overview of ad-hoc routing protocols that make forwarding decisions based on the geographical position of a packet's destination. Other than the destination 's position, each node needs to know only its own position and the position of its one-hop neighbors in order to forwar ..."

to forward packets. Since it is not necessary to maintain explicit routes, position-based routing does scale well even if the network is highly dynamic. This is a major advantage in a mobile ad-hoc network where the topology may change frequently. The main prerequisite for position-based routing is that a

Comparison of Broadcasting Techniques for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

by Brad Williams, Tracy Camp - MOBIHOC'02 , 2002
"... Network wide broadcasting in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks provides important control and route establishment functionality for a number of unicast and multicast protocols. Considering its wide use as a building block for other network layer protocols, the MANET community needs to standardize a single meth ..."

Mitigating routing misbehavior in mobile ad hoc networks

by Sergio Marti, T. J. Giuli, Kevin Lai, Mary Baker - Proc. ACM/IEEE MOBICOM , 2000
"... This paper describes two techniques that improve through-put in an ad hoc network in the presence of nodes that agree to forward packets but fail to do so. To mitigate this prob-lem, we propose categorizing nodes based upon their dynam-ically measured behavior. We use a watchdog that identifies misb ..."

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 ..."

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 ..."

Sprite: A Simple, Cheat-Proof, Credit-Based System for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

by Sheng Zhong, Jiang Chen, Richard Yang - in Proceedings of IEEE INFOCOM , 2002
"... Mobile ad hoc networking has been an active research area for several years. How to stimulate cooperation among selfish mobile nodes, however, is not well addressed yet.

A Survey of Mobility Models for Ad Hoc Network Research

by Tracy Camp , Jeff Boleng, Vanessa Davies - WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS & MOBILE COMPUTING (WCMC): SPECIAL ISSUE ON MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKING: RESEARCH, TRENDS AND APPLICATIONS , 2002
"... In the performance evaluation of a protocol for an ad hoc network, the protocol should be tested under realistic conditions including, but not limited to, a sensible transmission range, limited buffer space for the storage of messages, representative data traffic models, and realistic movements of t ..."

We describe several mobility models that represent mobile nodes whose movements are independent of each other (i.e., entity mobility models) and several mobility models

Location-aided routing (LAR) in mobile ad hoc networks, in:

by Young-Bae Ko , Nitin H Vaidya - Proc. of MOBICOM , 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 ..."
