Software Solutions to Internet Connectivity in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

چکیده
In recent years wireless Internet access and wireless communications between peers have become the focus of intensive research efforts in various areas of information and communication technologies. Mobility aspects, software development and support for mobile users are currently of major interest within this research area. The Mobile IP protocol is deployed for mobility management of hosts moving between networks. Ad hoc routing is also of major importance for connectivity between communicating mobile hosts without backbone infrastructure. In this paper we propose and describe an integrated connectivity solution and its software implementation between an ad hoc network running the Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance-Vector Protocol (AODV) and a wired IP network where Mobile IP is used for mobility management. The article also describes a project called Mobile City in which our software solutions and support infrastructure are tested and validated.

A Survey of Solutions to Protect Against All Types of Attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
In recent years mobile networks have expanded dramatically, compared with other wireless networks. Routing protocols in these networks are designed with the assumption that there is no attacker node, so routing protocols are vulnerable to various attacks in these networks. In this paper, we review the network layer attacks and then we simulate the impact of black hole attack on ad hoc on demand...
متن کاملAnalysis of NAT-Based Internet Connectivity for Multi-Homed On-Demand Ad Hoc Networks
A prerequisite for a widespread and successful deployment of on-demand ad-hoc networking technology is its ability to provide easy access to the Internet. Existing solutions for Internet access are mainly based on modifying Mobile IPv4 (MIPv4). An easier approach, yet poorly documented in published material, is to implement Network Address Translation (NAT) on Internet Gateway nodes in the ad h...
متن کاملExperimenting a Layer 2-based Approach to Internet Connectivity for Ad Hoc Networks
A prerequisite for the mass-market deployment of multihop ad hoc technologies is the capability of integrating with existing wired infrastructure networks. However, current solutions to support connectivity between ad hoc networks and the Internet are based on complex mechanisms, such as Mobile-IP and IP tunnelling. In this paper we propose a lightweight solution based on simple Layer-2 mechani...
متن کاملReview Strategies and Analysis of Mobile Ad Hoc Network- Internet Integration Solutions
The desire to be connected anytime and anywhere has led to the development of wireless networks, opening new vista of research in pervasive and ubiquitous computing. Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) use portable devices such as mobile phones, laptops or personal digital assistants (PDAs) for spontaneous establishment of communication. Most existing research in the area of mobile Ad Hoc Networks ...
متن کاملImproving Quality of Service Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using OLSR
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are constructed by mobile nodes without access point. Since MANET has certain constraints, including power shortages, an unstable wireless environment and node mobility, more power-efficient and reliable routing protocols are needed. The OLSR protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm. OLSR introduces an interesting concept, the multipoint r...
