IP anycast allows a source node to transmit IP packets to a single destination node, out of a group of destination nodes. It can be an important paradigm for an ad-hoc network in terms of resource, robustness and efficiency for replicated service applications. DSR is a simple and efficient routing protocol designed specifically for use in multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks of mobile nodes. This...

The performance of many envisioned applications in shortrange wireless ad hoc networking will critically rely on the promptness of the self-configuring network procedures. In that sense, a fundamental problem in ad hoc networks, is the device discovery and/or network initialization. In this paper we propose a randomized distributed algorithm for rapid device discovery during the deployment of a...

Wireless Ad Hoc network suffers from a lot of problems such as low throughput and hot and dead spots. Gupta and Kumar have established the throughput of ad hoc networks only for the unicast pattern which is not effective in application. And they did not take the possible network coding and broadcast and multicast pattern into consideration. There has been interest in applying network coding in ...

Ad hoc networks are characterized by multihop wireless connectivity, frequently changing network topology and the need for efficient dynamic routing protocols. We compare the performance of three routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks: Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) , Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), location-aided routing(LAR1).The performance differentials are analyzed usi...

Future wireless ad hoc networks will use mobile routers to provide Internet connectivity to mobile ad hoc users. A mobile router also allows mobility of an entire ad hoc network, e.g. in plains, trains, cars, and other vehicles, where mobile users may use an Internet access within an ad hoc network domain. Mobile Internet access is also required for various mobile networks such as Personal Area...

Ad-hoc networks that are connected with the infrastructure Internet are named hybrid ad-hoc networks. In 4G communications scenarios, hybrid ad-hoc networks seem to be valuable since they may increase the coverage of wireless networks with minor costs. Using them, terminals out of range of an access point or a base station, or not having adequate network interfaces, may reach the operator’s inf...

A Wireless Ad hoc Network is a collection of wireless nodes forming a self-configuring network lacking of using any obtainable transportation. Since Wireless Ad Hoc Networks are not currently deployed on a large scale, research in this area is generally simulation based. Among other simulation parameters, the mobility model plays a significant role in determining the protocol performance with t...

– In MANET, ad hoc network is an energetic topology, hosts, and infrastructure less multi-hop wireless ad hoc environment. The efficient node-energy consumption in wireless ad hoc networks is essential as ad-hoc nodes operate with limited battery power. Thus, failure of node in ad hoc network leads to loss of communication in the network and down frequently due to mobility of nodes. It maintai...

Energy optimization is the main requirements of wireless ad-hoc network that consumes less energy to give optimum performance under limited bandwidth and low battery power of each node. Network life time is the main issues in ad-hoc network. In this paper, first investigate and analyze the impact of receiving energy on nodes remaining energy in networks. Analysis and simulation results show tha...
