  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. Mobility model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobility_model

    Mobility models characterize the movements of mobile users with respect to their location, velocity and direction over a period of time. These models play an vital role in the design of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks(MANET). Most of the times simulators play a significant role in testing the features of mobile ad hoc networks.

  4. Smartphone ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartphone_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 access points, or traditional network infrastructure. Wi-Fi SPANs use the mechanism behind Wi-Fi ad-hoc mode, which allows phones to ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Stochastic geometry models of wireless networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_geometry_models...

    Poisson bipolar network model is a type of stochastic geometry model based on the Poisson process and is an early example of a model for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), [2] [31] [44] which are a self-organizing wireless communication network in which mobile devices rely on no infrastructure (base stations or access points). In MANET models ...

  7. Geosocial networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosocial_networking

    A mobile ad hoc network is an opt-in group of mobile devices in the same immediate area linked to a master device. These groups are then able to communicate freely with each other. These groups are then able to communicate freely with each other.

  8. Associativity-based routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associativity-based_routing

    A working 6-node wide wireless ad hoc network spanning a distance of over 600 meters was achieved and the successful event was published in Mobile Computing Magazine in 1999. Various tests were performed with the network: Transmission of up to 500MBytes of data from source to destination over a 3-hop route.

  9. 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.
