The future wireless communication system will be heterogeneous, broadband, and inter-operational, and mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) will be an important component. However, the salient characteristics make the design of MANETs face serious challenges. This book attempts to introduce the design, modeling and the performance analysis of various types of MANET protocols related to dynamic mobility and scalability in the network layer, and the minimization of the data collisions in the MAC layer. The first focus is on the network protocols to reduce the influence of host mobility. A...
