| Summary |
"Ad Hoc Networks: Technologies and Protocols is a concise in depth treatment of various constituent components of ad hoc network protocols. It reviews issues related to medium access control, scalable routing, group, communications, use of directional/smart antennas, network security, and power management among other topics." "Ad Hoc Networks: Technologies and Protocols will be immensely useful as a reference work to engineers and researchers as well as to advanced level students in the areas of wireless networks and computer networks."--Jacket |
