Multihop connectivity in wireless ad hoc networks
Wireless ad hoc networks have numerous real life applications as they can be instantaneously established, require no infrastructure, and are autonomic and selforganizing. Multihop connectivity is the ability of the multiple-hops-away nodes—nodes which are not directly connected—to communicate with each other. Since wireless ad hoc networks are infrastructure-less, the participating nodes themse...
متن کاملTopology control for ad hoc networks with directional antennas
Topology control for ad hoc networks aims to increase effective network capacity and conserve energy. Most proposed algorithms assume the usage of isotropic antennas and thus only adjust the transmission power of each node. We propose a distributed topology control mechanism for ad hoc networks with directional antennas that adjusts antenna pattern (direction(s)) in addition to transmission pow...
متن کاملBroadcast traffic in ad hoc networks with directional antennas
We explore the use of directional antennas to improve the performance of broadcasting in ad hoc networks. We investigate both the performance of unicast traffic in the presence of broadcast traffic and the performance of broadcast traffic when mixed with unicast traffic, which is different from previous investigations reported in the literature in which broadcast traffic is investigated in isol...
متن کاملElastic Routing in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks With Directional Antennas
Throughput scaling laws of an ad hoc network equipping directional antennas at each node are analyzed. More specifically, this paper considers a general framework in which the beam width of each node can scale at an arbitrary rate relative to the number of nodes. We introduce an elastic routing protocol, which enables to increase per-hop distance elastically according to the beam width, while m...
متن کاملMulticast communication in ad hoc networks with directional antennas
Abstract— This paper investigates the benefits and impacts of using directional antennas for multicast communications in ad hoc networks. In terms of signal reception, directional antennas have shown considerable improvement in the performance of all aspects over omni-directional antennas, especially over dense networks with heavy traffic load. In addition, we have found that transmitting multi...
