Download or read book Ad-hoc Networks: Fundamental Properties and Network Topologies written by Ramin Hekmat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an original graph theoretical approach to the fundamental properties of wireless mobile ad-hoc networks. This approach is combined with a realistic radio model for physical links between nodes to produce new insight into network characteristics like connectivity, degree distribution, hopcount, interference and capacity. The book establishes directives for designing ad-hoc networks and sensor networks. It will interest the academic community, and engineers who roll out ad-hoc and sensor networks.
