    Performances of clustered ad hoc networks on 3D terrains

    Propagation prediction algorithms which use terrain information are typically used for the design of modern wireless systems. Therefore, it is essential that when analyzing the performances of ad hoc networks we observe the network in a natural 3D terrain and we use an appropriate propagation model. In this paper we explain our extension of the NS-2 simulator using Digital Elevation Model data and terrain aware propagation model. Because of the natural emergence of clustering in the network of users, we also study the relationship between the clustering in the ad hoc networks and different terrain profiles. The simulations show that, when the network clusters are accompanied with related terrain contours, the observed network performances demonstrate measurable enhancement.

    Analysis of small world phenomena and group mobility in ad hoc networks

    The main application of wireless mobile ad hoc networks is to offer services for situations wherein groups of people come together and share information. The groups of people that use the ad hoc network form some kind of social network. In this paper an analysis of the performances of mobile ad hoc networks is performed when taking into consideration its social characteristics through the small world phenomena of the application layer and usage of group-based mobility. The simulations show that the social interconnection between the network users has an extreme influence on the network performances. The results bring forth a different view on the real life deployment of ad hoc networks when compared to the poor performances of the purely randomized scenarios.

    One of the most important issues for mobile ad hoc networks is to know the availability of the system. In this paper we propose a generalized connection availability model based on real measurable parameters that concern the performances of mobile ad hoc networks. Detailed validation of the connection availability model is presented through simulations. The proposed model can be used for analysis or design of an ad hoc network that needs to satisfy a given connection availability level.

    One of the most important issues in the main applications of mobile ad hoc networks (as rescue and military operations) is to know the availability of the system. We developed an analytical model in order to investigate the routing protocol efficiency using real measurable parameters that concern the performances of mobile ad hoc networks. We analyzed the routing protocol efficiency with respect to connection availability for rescue mission example application.

    The deployment of wireless applications or protocols in the context of MANETs, often requires stepping through a simulation phase. There are several popular simulators, such as OPNET Modeller, GloMoSim or NS-2. Since NS-2 is more frequently used in worldwide network societies we present our experiences gained with the use of NS-2 for simulations of wireless mobile ad hoc networks. Facing the problem of poor documentation for ad hoc networks, our research resulted in reach documentation for NS-2 trace files and behaviour of ad hoc networks. We observed the flexibility of NS-2 simulator, by the means of adding new application layers, change of existing routing protocols, and incorporating various extensions created outside the NS-2 development team.

    Magnetic fields in residential and occupational environments attract attention due to concerns of health risks. This paper describes comparison of two simple numerical procedures for computation of magnetic fields due to sources typical for residential environment which can be also used for teaching purposes. The methods are confirmed with the results obtained by analytical closed form solution and experimental laboratory measurements.

    The fluctuation of the ad hoc network spatial parameters not only alters the network topology but also introduces severe changes in the ad hoc network performances. Based on a given ad hoc network connection availability model, in this paper we investigate the influence of several spatial parameters that affect the ad hoc network connection availability which is often used as an important measure of the ad hoc networks fault tolerance. These parameters include: size of the area wherein the participants in the mobile ad hoc network are scattered, node density, transmission range, distance between the communicating nodes.

    Ad Hoc Network Performances for Hybrid Social Networks
    (2008-11-25)
    ;
    Ad hoc networks provide means for information sharing for a group of users. Thus, care must be taken that a proper model of the end-to-end communication is used. In order to model a real-life situation, we use a unifying hybrid social network model that captures the scale-free property and small-world effect that appear when viewing the graph that corresponds to the user interaction. Several hybrid networks are investigated and certain interesting behaviors are shown

    Node density influence on link expiration time in ad hoc networks

    Because reactive routing protocols act differently on the presence of nodes in the transmission range proximity, the link expiration time depends on the node density in the ad hoc network. We present a model for calculation of the link expiration times that includes the node density influence.

    An important task of an ad hoc network consisting of geographically dispersed nodes is to determine the characteristics of the topology which include connectivity, energy-effectiveness, throughput, and robustness to mobility. However, the widely used network simulators don’t support topology simulations that result in an evaluation of the quality of the network topology. Thus, in this paper, we introduce a newly developed wireless ad hoc network topology simulator – TopoSim, that can be used for the purposes of simulating a topology of an ad hoc network, including its dynamical changes caused by the node’s mobility, for the purposes of determining the main topology characteristics of the simulated network.
