Umamaheswari 1, K. Ranjith singh 2 1Periyar University, TamilNadu, India 2Professor of PGP College, TamilNadu, India 1 [email protected]; 2 [email protected] Abstract— An ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically forming a temporary network without the use of any preexisting network infrastructure or centralized administration. Routing protocols used in ad hoc networks must automatically adjust to environments that can vary between the extremes of high mobility with low bandwidth, and low mobility with high bandwidth. This thesis argues that such protocols must operate in an on-demand fashion and that they must carefully limit the number of nodes required to react to a given topology change in the network. I have embodied these two principles in a routing protocol called Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). As a result of its unique design, the protocol adapts quickly to routing changes when node movement is frequent, yet requires little or no overhead during periods in which nodes move less frequently. By presenting a detailed analysis of DSR’s behavior in a variety of situations, this thesis generalizes the lessons learned from DSR so that they can be applied to the many other new routing protocols that have adopted the basic DSR framework. The thesis proves the practicality of the DSR protocol through performance results collected from a full-scale 8 node tested, and it demonstrates several methodologies for experimenting with protocols and applications in an ad hoc network environment, including the emulation of ad hoc networks.

  • A Load Awareness Medium Access Control Protocol for Wireless Ad
    A Load Awareness Medium Access Control Protocol for Single-Hop Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Chih-Min Chao1, Jang-Ping Sheu2, and I-Cheng Chou2 1 Department of Computer Science and Engineering National Taiwan Ocean University, 20224, Taiwan Tel: +886-2-24622192 ext 6651, Fax: +886-2-24623249 Email: [email protected] 2 Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering National Central University, Taiwan Email: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract A contention-based wireless ad hoc medium access control (MAC) protocol, such as car- rier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA), has excellent e±ciency when the system is light-loaded. The main drawback of such protocols is their ine±ciency and un- bounded delay when the system load is heavy. On the other hand, a contention-free MAC protocol, such as token passing, has a better and fair throughput when the system is heavy- loaded. The main drawback of such protocols is their ine±ciency when only a small amount of users want to transmit. In this paper, we propose a new load awareness single-hop wireless ad hoc MAC protocol (which is called the LA protocol) that exploits the bene¯ts of both contention-based and contention-free protocols. A contention-based MAC protocol is used when the system is light-loaded and a contention-free one is used otherwise. Our LA protocol, which operates in a distributed fashion and is fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11 wireless local area network (WLAN) standard, can switch smoothly between the contention-based pro- tocol and the contention-free one.

Some outstanding solutions in this field are Wireless Local Area Networks, that offer high-speed data rate in small areas, and Wireless Wide Area Networks, that allow a greater mobility for users. In some situations, like in military environment and emergency and rescue operations, the necessity of establishing dynamic communications with no reliance on any kind of infrastructure is essential. Then, the ease of quick deployment ad hoc networks provide becomes of great usefulness. Ad hoc networks are formed by mobile hosts that cooperate with each other in a distributed way for the transmissions of packets over wireless links, their routing, and to manage the network itself. Their features condition their design in several network layers, so that parameters like bandwidth or energy consumption, that appear critical in a multi-layer design, must be carefully taken into account.

When Wi- Fi networks are in ad-hoc mode, each device in the network forwards data to the others. Since the devices in the ad-hoc network can access each other's resources directly through a basic point-to-point wireless connection, central servers are unnecessary for functions such as file shares or printers. In a wireless ad-hoc network, a collection of devices (or nodes) is responsible for network operations, such as routing, security, addressing and key management. WIRELESS AD-HOC NETWORK (WANET) How does it work? Devices in the ad-hoc network require a wireless network adapter, and they need to support a hosted network. When setting up a wireless ad-hoc network, each wireless adapter must be configured for ad-hoc mode instead of infrastructure mode. All wireless adapters need to use the same service set identifier (SSID) and channel number. Creating an ad-hoc network for Windows 8 and 10 applications is more difficult than it was for earlier Windows OSes. Networking experts offer pointers on how to tackle this issue.

Multi-hop routing in ad-hoc wireless networks realizes some scalability benefits over direct transmis- sion by utilizing cooperation in the network layer, where all nodes act as routers to relay messages. Cooperative transmission takes this idea a step further, moving cooperation to the link layer, where nodes actually broadcast signals simultaneously to increase signal strength.
