This note take an overview about the different
concepts that, different technologies the corresponding protocols etcetera which are there and to enable the wireless Ad Hoc networks.
Topics covered includes: Self-organizing Behaviour of Wireless Ad Hoc Networks,
Cooperation in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, MAC Protocols in MANETs, Routing in
MANETs.
A wireless ad-hoc network
is a wireless network deployed without any infrastructure. This
includes wireless mesh networks, mobile ad-hoc networks, and vehicular
ad-hoc networks. This book focuses on the most fundamental aspects of
wireless ad-hoc networks. Topics include the design of the link layer
for better performance, the study on routing protocols for higher
efficiency, and practical issues in its application.
This book presents some of the latest
development status of wireless LAN, covering the topics on physical layer, MAC
layer, QoS and systems. It provides an opportunity for both practitioners and
researchers to explore the problems that arise in the rapidly developed
technologies in wireless LAN.
