Study Notes
Ad Hoc Networks
- An ad hoc network is a type of wireless network that does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure.
Challenges in Building MANET
- The primary challenge in building a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is the dynamic topology due to node mobility.
Requirements for Devices in MANET
- Each device in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) needs to be a router, as well as a node that can send and receive data.
Network Creation in MANET
- Devices in a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) are enabled to create and join networks on the fly due to their ability to dynamically configure themselves and adapt to the changing network topology.
Data Forwarding in WANET/MANET
- The decision of which nodes forward data in a wireless ad hoc network (WANET) or mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is determined by routing algorithms and protocols.
