Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is an autonomous, multi-hop and dynamic network composed of number of wireless mobile nodes. Routing protocols are challenges in designing Mobile Ad-hoc networks with low energy consuming and low control overhead. Ad-hoc on demand distance vector routing protocol (AODV) is specially designed for mobile ad-hoc networks with Expanding Ring Search (ERS) technique for ...

An ad hoc wireless network consists of mobile networks which creates an underlying architecture for communication without the help of traditional fixed-position routers. Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) is a routing protocol used for Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET). Nevertheless, the architecture must maintain communication routes although the hosts are mobile and they have limited transmi...

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).Our evaluation is based on energy consumption ...

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), a set of wirelessly connected sensor nodes, is a dynamic system that executes hop-by-hop routing independently with no external help of any infrastructure. Proper selection of cluster heads can increase the life time of the Ad-hoc network by decreasing the energy consumption. Although different methods have been successfully proposed by researchers to tackle...

A wireless ad hoc network is a decentralized type of wireless network. It is a type of temporary computer-tocomputer connection. It is a spontaneous network which includes mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET), vehicular adhoc networks (VANET) and Flying ad-hoc networks (FANET). A MANET is a network that has many free or autonomous nodes often composed of mobile devices that can operate without strict...

Wireless ad-hoc networks has now become one of the most vibrant and active field of communication and networks. Due to lack of a defined central authority, MANETs are more vulnerable to security attacks and thus security is essential requirement in MANET as compared to the wired network. The nature and structure of MANET makes it attractive to various types of attackers. In this paper the princ...

This paper presents a master/slave cellular-based mobile ad hoc network architecture for multihop multimedia communications. The proposed network is based on a new paradigm for solving the problem of cluster-based ad hoc routing when utilizing existing wireless local area network (WLAN) technologies. The network architecture is a mixture of two different types of networks: infrastructure (maste...

This paper talks about an emerging and exciting application of ad-hoc network where vehicles are serving as nodes. This area has certain promised aspects and activities to be offered, which are broadly related with the safety, convenience, entertainment, and various other topics of interest. It is an ad hoc network of vehicles, known as ‘Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET).’ Vehicular Ad-Hoc netwo...

This paper suggests an architecture of DNS service system for IPv6 mobile ad-hoc network connected to the Internet. The DNS resolution of DNS names of mobile nodes within mobile ad-hoc network is performed by multicast DNS and that of DNS names of nodes in the Internet is performed through DNS autoconfiguration of recursive DNS server. In the former, each mobile node plays a role of DNS name se...

heretofore several position-based routing protocols have been developed for mobile ad hoc networks. many of these protocols assume that a location service is available which provides location information on the nodes in the network.our solutions decrease location update without loss of query success rate or throughput and even increase those.simulation results show that our methods are effectiv...
