MULTICAST ROUTING PROTOCOLS AND ARCHITECTURES IN MOBILE AD-HOC WIRELESS NETWORKS

This paper discusses the role of ad hoc networking in future wireless communications. Ad hoc networks are'classified as isolated ad hoc networks with large and small sizes, integrated ad hoc networks in various scenarios and cellular ad hoc networks for the future mobile access networks. The very low traffic performance of large scale ad hoc networks is shown by simulation results, indicating s...

of the Dissertation Routing and Multicasting Strategies in Wireless Mobile Ad hoc Networks

Secure and efficient communication among a set of mobile nodes is one of the most important aspects in ad-hoc wireless networks. To ensure the security, several cryptography protocols must be implemented. Due to the resource scarcity in wireless networks, the protocols must be communication efficient and need as less computational power as possible. To secure the group broadcasting in wireless ...

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are pervasive, self-configuring, infrastructure-free, and ubiquitous devoid of any centralized authority. Mobile ad hoc networks have proved their efficiency in the deployment for different fields, but they are highly vulnerable to security attacks which is particularly challenging in wireless networks. The existing research that has been carried out provides auth...

Ad hoc networks are wireless networks composed of mobile devices with limited power and transmission range. Advance reservations are a useful method to allocate resources of various kinds in many different environments, and especially be useful for wireless ad hoc networks that require network quality of service, which need advance reservation to support handovers for streaming video. It is key...

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are formed by mobile nodes without the support of fixed infrastructure. In the MANET, each node performs as a host as well as host to forward the data packets. The nodes are adjustable based on the local environments. MANETs are used in many situations where temporary network connection is needed. In this paper, investigates the problem of lifetime enhancement of...

MANET is the collection of various wireless mobile nodes. Security is of high concern in mobile ad hoc network as it has no centralized authority which can oversee the particular node working in the network. The attacks can be preformed from both inside and outside the network. Nodes within surrounding to gain common radio link can be often used to set up ad hoc infrastructure. But the safe com...

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) consists of mobile wireless nodes. The communication between these mobile nodes is carried without any centralized control. The ease of deployment and the infrastructure less nature of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) make them highly desirable for present day multi media communications. In this paper we analyze the performance of TCP/IP based application protocol ...

A mobile Ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous system of mobile routers (and associated hosts) connected by wireless links. In some applications, the routers are fixed and sometimes mobile free to move randomly and organize themselves arbitrarily. Due to mobile nature, the network’s wireless topology may change rapidly and unpredictably. Such a network may operate in a stand-alone fashion, or...
