Devising a solution for the provision of quality of service (QoS) in a mobile ad hoc network is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a routing protocol with a provision of QoS. Our protocol tries to discover multiple node-disjoint paths between a given source and a destination and tries to utilize them for a desired level of QoS. In our protocol, nodes along paths are aware of the correlation...
The ad hoc network is a non-infrastructure mobile network that consists of many mobile nodes. Since the nodes have a mobility features in ad hoc network, the ability of communication between the nodes is limited by nodespsila power. The power consumption and bandwidth of each mobile node becomes an important issue and needs to be addressed. The paper discusses the energy efficient routing problem...
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET), which comprise of mobile nodes connected wirelessly, are emerging as a very important technology for future generation of wireless mobile and ubiquitous computing. MANETs are being used in numerous application domains from emergency rescue and relief to wireless sensor networks. To support real-time communications (such as audio and video) over MANETs, new quality of...
Ad hoc networks are collection of mobile nodes which communicate using wireless media without any fixed infrastructure. Each mobile host acts both as a network router and an end point as packets are forwarded over multiple hops. Node mobility being the distinguishing feature of the mobile ad hoc network, makes routing an important challenge. Hence, Quality of Service (QoS) is not easily achieved in...
In this paper, we investigate the issues of survivability and efficiency in a heterogeneous mobile ad hoc network (MANET) and Sensor network as a combined network where the communications is achieved using a mixed MANET and Sensor Network, referred to as SMANET for supporting mission critical applications. Using the cluster managed SMANET where, heterogeneous nodes with different capabilities and...
This paper explores the attributes, layering models and objective functions in cross layer designs for mobile ad hoc wireless networks by taking all the statistical characteristics and constraints from the physical (PHY) layer, media access control (MAC) layer and network (NET) layer into consideration. This paper reviews the entire network optimization across all the PHY/MAC/NET layers. At the PHY...
