Position based localized routing in mobile ad hoc network

Abstract

Advances in wireless technology and hand-held computing devices have brollght newlinerevolution in the area of mobile communication. The increasing mobility of humans newlineacross the globe generated demand for infrastructure-less and quickly deployable newlinemobile networks. Such networks are referred to as Mobile Ad hoc Networks newline(MANET). Mobile ad hoc networks consist of nodes equipped with wireless newlinecommunication and computing facilities. MANET inherits the limitations of wireless newlinenetworks such as bandwidth, battery power, etc. In addition, multi-hop routing in newlineMANET is one of the most challenging task due to frequently changing topolology.
