Study Notes

Ad Hoc Networks

A type of wireless network that does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure is an ad hoc network.

Challenges in Building a MANET

The primary challenge in building a MANET is the dynamic and self-organizing nature of the network.

Device Functionality in a MANET

Each device in a MANET needs to perform routing, forwarding, and transport functions, as well as being a router and a host simultaneously.

Decentralized Nature of Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

Wireless ad hoc networks are considered decentralized because they do not rely on a central authority or infrastructure to operate.

Dynamic Network Creation in a MANET

Devices in a MANET are enabled to create and join networks 'on the fly' due to their ability to self-organize and adapt to changing network conditions.
