— Considered is a mobile ad hoc network consisting of three types of nodes (source, destination and relay nodes) and using the two-hop relay routing protocol. Packets at relay no...
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) consist of a collection of wireless mobile nodes which dynamically exchange data among themselves without the reliance on a fixed base station or a...
: The MMARP protocol provides multicast routing in hybrid environments in which an ad hoc network is connected to the Internet. As many other routing protocols it was initially des...
