Ad Hoc Wireless Networking

Part of the book series: Network Theory and Applications ((NETA,volume 14))

Abstract

The fact that large fixed network infrastructures exist seems to limit the usefulness of other forms of communication systems such as ad hoc networks. In many situations, however, ad hoc networks are preferred. Currently mobile network system has attracted more and more attention because of great benefit from the mobile network such as the mobility and flexibility. Mobile network users can move anywhere with almost no restriction to communicate with other people or access the network. Also, if they like, they can construct their own ad hoc network to share their information among them with their small computers and/or even their PDAs.
