Abstract

A brief overview of mobility models, MAC , topology control , routing , QOS , energy management, security , and P2P applications of mobile ad hoc network s is provided. It is described how the random mobility patterns of each autonomous mobile node , broadcast nature of multihop wireless communications, and lack of fixed infrastructure are affecting each networking area of the MANET . New research problems that need to be investigated into those areas are also discussed.
