Assimilating the most up-to-date information on research and development activities in this rapidly growing area, "Mobile Ad Hoc Networking" covers physical, data link, network, and transport layers, as well as application, security, simulation, and power management issues in sensor, local area, personal, and mobile ad hoc networks. Each of the book's sixteen chapters has been written by a top expert and discusses in-depth the most important topics in the field, including: The historical evolution of mobile ad hoc networking Off-the-shelf enablers of ad hoc networks IEEE 802.11 in ad hoc networks Bluetooth networks Antenna beamforming, power control, and topology control Routing technology Location discovery Energy-efficient communication in ad hoc wireless networks Security Self-organized and cooperative ad hoc networks Algorithmic challenges in ad hoc networking

"Mobile Ad Hoc Networking" is an excellent reference and guide for professionals seeking an in-depth examination of topics that also provides a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art.
From physical issues up to applications aspects, "Mobile Ad Hoc Networking" comprehensively covers all areas of the technology, including protocols and models, with an emphasis on the most current research and development in the rapidly growing area of ad hoc networks. All material has been carefully screened for quality and relevance and reviewed by the most renowned and involved experts in the field. Explores the most recent research and development in the rapidly growing area of ad hoc networks. Includes coverage of ad hoc networking trends, possible architectures, and the advantages/limits for future commercial, social, and educational applications. Ad hoc networks have been an intense area of research and development but many products that fully utilize this technology are only now being widely deployed throughout the world.
