    Study Notes

    Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET)

    • A major concern in a MANET is security.
    • The purpose of a MANET in a military context is to provide a communication network in the battlefield.

    Characteristics of MANET

    • MANET is a self-configuring, infrastructure-less network of mobile devices.
    • The links in a MANET are wireless.
    • The nodes in a MANET are mobile.
    • A characteristic of a MANET is that it is self-healing, meaning that it can rapidly respond to changes in the network.
    • A key characteristic of a MANET routing mechanism is that it is adaptive.
    • A characteristic of a MANET regarding scalability is that it can scale up to hundreds of nodes.
    • A characteristic of a MANET regarding network traffic overhead is that it has low overhead.

    Challenges and Requirements

    • One of the challenges in a MANET is maintaining connectivity.
    • Another challenge is managing network topology and routing.
    • A requirement for a routing protocol in a MANET is that it must be able to adapt to changing network topology.

    MANET Working Group

    • The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) created the Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) working group.
    • The purpose of the MANET working group is to develop a routing protocol for MANETs.
    • The MANET working group is currently pursuing an on-demand routing protocol.
