  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. Optimized Link State Routing Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimized_Link_State...

    The Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR) [1] is an IP routing protocol optimized for mobile ad hoc networks, which can also be used on other wireless ad hoc networks. OLSR is a proactive link-state routing protocol , which uses hello and topology control (TC) messages to discover and then disseminate link state information throughout ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Wireless access point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_access_point

    An ad hoc network uses a connection between two or more devices without using a wireless access point; the devices communicate directly. Because setup is easy and does not require an access point, an ad hoc network is used in situations such as a quick data exchange or a multiplayer video game. Due to its peer-to-peer layout, ad hoc Wi-Fi ...

  6. IEEE 802.11s - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11s

    IEEE 802.11s is a wireless local area network (WLAN) standard and an IEEE 802.11 amendment for mesh networking, defining how wireless devices can interconnect to create a wireless LAN mesh network, which may be used for relatively fixed (not mobile) topologies and wireless ad hoc networks. The IEEE 802.11s task group drew upon volunteers from ...

  7. 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 ...

  8. Wireless LAN - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_LAN

    Peer-to-Peer or ad hoc wireless LAN. An ad hoc network is a network where stations communicate only peer-to-peer (P2P). There is no base and no one gives permission to talk. This is accomplished using the Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). A Wi-Fi Direct network is a different type of wireless network where stations communicate peer-to-peer. [4]

  9. Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Destination-Sequenced...

    The availability of paths to all destinations in network always shows that less delay is required in the path set up process. The method of incremental update with sequence number labels, marks the existing wired network protocols adaptable to Ad-hoc wireless networks.
