Ebook Reading 1: MANET by Loo Chp 1
What are the essential features
of MANET?
Autonomous terminals: Each mobile node is
an autonomous node, which may function
both as a router and end node
Distributed operation: The control and the
management of the network is distributed
among the nodes. The nodes involved in a
MANET should collaborate amongst
themselves to implement functions like
security and routing
Multi-hop routing: based on the type of
routing protocol, link layer attributes
Dynamic network topology: network is formed
on fly and life time of the network is short.
Nodes are mobile (i.e. topology is dynamic).
