— We present in this work a new mechanism based on an innovative hybrid approach for traffic and collision control in wireless ad hoc networks. We combine the well known equatio...
Position-based routing protocols in ad hoc networks combine a forwarding strategy with a recovery algorithm. The former fails when there are void regions or physical obstacles tha...
: We propose a location-service to assist location-based routing protocols, realised through our Associativity-Based Clustering protocol. The main goal of our scheme, which employs...
Smart antennas are expected to enhance scalability in ad hoc networks. This paper at first evaluates three directional MAC protocols, DMAC, MMAC and SWAMP as well as the omni-dir...
Caching techniques can be used to reduce bandwidth consumption and data access delay in wireless ad hoc networks. When cache is used, cache consistency issues must be addressed. T...
