Multihop Wireless Networks

Beschreibung

This book provides an introduction to opportunistic routing anemerging technology designed to improve the packet forwardingreliability, network capacity and energy efficiency of multihopwireless networks This book presents a comprehensive background to thetechnological challenges lying behind opportunistic routing. Theauthors cover many fundamental research issues for this newconcept, including the basic principles, performance limit andperformance improvement of opportunistic routing compared totraditional routing, energy efficiency and distributedopportunistic routing protocol design, geographic opportunisticrouting, opportunistic broadcasting, and security issues associatedwith opportunistic routing, etc. Furthermore, the authors discusstechnologies such as multi-rate, multi-channel, multi-radiowireless communications, energy detection, channel measurement,etc. The book brings together all the new results on this topic ina systematic, coherent and unified presentation and provides a muchneeded comprehensive introduction to this topic. Key Features: * Addresses opportunistic routing, an emerging technologydesigned to improve the packet forwarding reliability, networkcapacity and energy efficiency of multihop wireless networks * Discusses the technological challenges lying behind this newtechnology, and covers a wide range of practical implementationissues * Explores many fundamental research issues for this new concept,including the basic principles of opportunistic routing,performance limits and performance improvement, and compares themto traditional routing (e.g. energy efficiency and distributedopportunistic routing protocol design, broadcasting, and securityissues) * Covers technologies such as multi-rate, multi-channel,multi-radio wireless communications, energy detection, channelmeasurement, etc. This book provides an invaluable reference for researchersworking in the field of wireless networks and wirelesscommunications, and Wireless professionals. Graduate students willalso find this book of interest.
