Ad Hoc Wireless Networks can be set up anywhere and anytime as they eliminate the complexities of infrastructure setup and administration. An Ad Hoc Wireless Network is a wireless network, comprised of mobile nodes (which can also serve as routers) that use wireless transmission, having no infrastructure (central administration such as a Base Station in a Cellular Wireless Network or an Access Point in a Wireless LAN). In the last few years, there has been a big interest in Ad Hoc Wireless Networks as they have tremendous military and commercial potential.Ad Hoc Wireless Networks find applications in several areas, such as military applications (establishing communication among a group of soldiers for tactical operations as setting up of a fixed infrastructure in enemy territories or in inhospitable terrains may not be possible), collaborative and distributed computing, emergency operations, wireless mess networks, wireless sensor networks, and hybrid (integrated Cellular and Ad Hoc) wireless networks.This book first presents the fundamental topics involved with Wireless Networking such as Wireless Communications Technology, such as Utlra Wideband Technology, Wireless LANs and PANs, such as Wi-Fi Systems, Wireless WANs and MANs, Wireless Internet, Wireless Sensors Networks, and Hybrid Wireless Architecture (this is the hot topic of "cross-layer wireless networks).
I have reviewed many books on the topic of Ad Hoc Networks, and this is the finest I have seen on the topic.—Dr. Theodore S. Rappaport, William and Bettye Nowlin Chair in Engineering, Director, Wireless Networking and Communications Group, University of Texas.
Practical design and performance solutions for every ad hoc wireless network
Ad Hoc Wireless Networks comprise mobile devices that use wireless transmission for communication. They can be set up anywhere and any time because they eliminate the complexities of infrastructure setup and central administration-and they have enormous commercial and military potential. Now, there's a book that addresses every major issue related to their design and performance. Ad Hoc Wireless Networks: Architectures and Protocols presents state-of-the-art techniques and solutions, and supports them with easy-to-understand examples. The book starts off with the fundamentals of wireless networking (wireless PANs, LANs, MANs, WANs, and wireless Internet) and goes on to address such current topics as Wi-Fi networks, optical wireless networks, and hybrid wireless architectures. Coverage includes:
Ad Hoc Wireless Networks is an invaluable resource for every network engineer, technical manager, and researcher designing or building ad hoc wireless networks.
