Improving Ad Hoc Network Performance With Backbone Topology Control

Overview An important means to provide connectivity in areas where no access point is directly available is ad hoc networking. However, situations may occur where the connectivity of a set of nodes cannot be guaranteed (if they are too far apart); moreover, no QoS can be offered since the number of hops and the signal quality (thus the throughput) cannot be controlled. Therefore, this paper proposes to deploy a controlled backbone in the ad hoc environment using movable mobile routers.
