Description for Ad Hoc Wireless Networks
Hardcover. The majority of studies carried out and books available on this exciting new area look at the technology from a 'top down' perspective, focusing on the higher layers of the protocol stack. This book adopts a different approach and looks at the technology from a 'bottom up' angle. Num Pages: 346 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TJKR; UT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 174 x 252 x 26. Weight in Grams: 812.
Ad hoc networking is a new area in wireless communications that is going to prevail in the next few decades. Understanding the full potential of this technology will lead to new applications both civilian and military, such as military ad hoc wireless networks, environmental sensor networks, car-based ad hoc networks, biomedical networks and many more. This text takes a "bottom-up" perspective. * The physical layer performance of ad hoc wireless networks is studied in detail showing the strong dependence of higher layer performance on physical layer capabilities and limitations. * A communication-theoretic perspective on the design of ad hoc wireless ...
