Wireless and Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks' offers the reader more than a dozen expert-authored chapters discussing the emerging technologies of ad-hoc networks. Such networks form an increasingly important part of the communications technology scene; they allow wireless devices to communicate with each other peer-to-peer, but are most commonly used for small numbers of devices in close proximity. Challenges arise for larger and more complex ad-hoc networks. This book presents thoroughly researched discussions of key issues such as performance enhancement, security and design. In the first part, routing issues in wireless ad-hoc networks are brought into focus. In the second part, protocol design for mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETS) is considered, and topics such as improving TCP performance, bandwidth estimation, routing solutions, security issues and data delivery are addressed. The final part focuses on applications of MANETS, and chapters range across key management, cooperative mobile positioning, the effect of packet losses on TCP traffic, and power control. Drawing on expert research, the contributions here will benefit researchers and graduate students in communications systems engineering.
