Routing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) presents a big challenge, especially when support for a large number of nodes is needed. This paper extends the local visibility concept of the recent DHT-based URBAN_XOR routing protocol, which…
The performance of Mobile Ad hoc networks (MANET) depends on the cooperation of all active nodes. However, supporting a MANET is a cost-intensive activity for a mobile node. From a single mobile node perspective, the detection of routes as…
IP mobility addresses the problem of changing the network point-of-attachment transparently during movement. Mobile IP is the proposed standard by IETF. Several studies, however, have shown that Mobile IP has several drawbacks, such as…
