  2. Wireless ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_ad_hoc_network

    A wireless ad hoc network [1] (WANET) or mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a decentralized type of wireless network. The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure, such as routers or wireless access points. Instead, each node participates in routing by forwarding data for other nodes.

  3. Ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hoc_network

    An ad hoc network refers to technologies that allow network communications on an ad hoc basis. [1] Associated technologies include: Wireless ad hoc network; Mobile ad hoc network; Vehicular ad hoc network. Intelligent vehicular ad hoc network; Protocols associated with ad hoc networking. Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing; Ad Hoc ...

  4. Smartphone ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartphone_ad_hoc_network

    The ad hoc networking technology operating on Wi-Fi ad hoc mode, at the unlicensed ISM band of 2.4 GHz may result in profit loss by cellular carriers since ISM band is free and unlicensed while cellular carriers operate on licensed band at 900 MHz, 1200 MHz, 1800 MHz, etc. This has the potential to threaten telecommunication operators (telcos).

  5. Vehicular ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicular_ad_hoc_network

    A Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a proposed type of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) involving road vehicles. [1] VANETs were first proposed [2] in 2001 as "car-to-car ad-hoc mobile communication and networking" applications, where networks could be formed and information could be relayed among cars.

  6. Wireless mesh network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_mesh_network

    In a wireless mesh network, topology tends to be more static, so that routes computation can converge and delivery of data to their destinations can occur. Hence, this is a low-mobility centralized form of wireless ad hoc network. Also, because it sometimes relies on static nodes to act as gateways, it is not a truly all-wireless ad hoc network.

  7. Ad hoc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hoc

    Ad hoc is a Latin phrase meaning literally ' for this '. In English , it typically signifies a solution designed for a specific purpose, problem, or task rather than a generalized solution adaptable to collateral instances (compare with a priori ).

  8. Internet of vehicles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_vehicles

    Internet of vehicles (IoV) is a network of vehicles equipped with sensors, software, and the technologies that mediate between these with the aim of connecting & exchanging data over the Internet according to agreed standards.

  9. Piconet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piconet

    A piconet is an ad hoc network that links a wireless user group of devices using Bluetooth technology protocols. A piconet consists of two or more devices occupying the same physical channel (synchronized to a common clock and hopping sequence). It allows one master device to interconnect with up to seven active slave devices.
