  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 On-Demand Distance Vector Routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hoc_On-Demand_Distance...

    Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) Routing is a routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and other wireless ad hoc networks.It was jointly developed by Charles Perkins (Sun Microsystems) and Elizabeth Royer (now Elizabeth Belding) (University of California, Santa Barbara) and was first published in the ACM 2nd IEEE Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications in ...

  4. Smartphone ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartphone_ad_hoc_network

    Once embedded with ad hoc networking technology, a group of smartphones in close proximity can together create an ad hoc network. Smart phone ad hoc networks use the existing hardware (primarily Bluetooth and Wi-Fi) in commercially available smartphones to create peer-to-peer networks without relying on cellular carrier networks, wireless ...

    The Better Approach to Mobile Ad-hoc Networking (B.A.T.M.A.N.) is a routing protocol for multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks which is under development by the German "Freifunk" community and intended to replace the Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR) as OLSR did not meet the performance requirements of large-scale mesh deployments.

  6. List of ad hoc routing protocols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ad_hoc_routing...

    An ad hoc routing protocol is a convention, or standard, that controls how nodes decide which way to route packets between computing devices in a mobile ad hoc network. In ad hoc networks, nodes are not familiar with the topology of their networks. Instead, they have to discover it: typically, a new node announces its presence and listens for ...

  7. Delay-tolerant networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay-tolerant_networking

    Delay and disruption-tolerant networks (DTNs), are characterized by their lack of connectivity, resulting in a lack of instantaneous end-to-end paths. In these challenging environments, popular ad hoc routing protocols such as AODV [2] and DSR [3] fail to establish routes. This is due to these protocols trying to first establish a complete ...

  8. Wi-Fi Direct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Direct

    Wi-Fi Protected Setup allows access points to be set up simply by entering a PIN or other identification into a connection screen, or in some cases, simply by pressing a button. The Protected Setup system uses this information to send data to a computer, handing it the information needed to complete the network setup and connect to the Internet.

    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 ...
