Position-Based Routing Protocols for Ad Hoc Networks

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Application and Multidisciplinary Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Wireless Ad Hoc networks are collections of nodes that can communicate without any fixed infrastructure. A crucial problem in Ad Hoc networks is finding an efficient and correct route between a source and a destination. The need for scalable and energy-efficient protocols, along with the recent availability of small, inexpensive, and low-power positioning instruments justify adopting position-based routing algorithms in mobile ad hoc networks.
