Routing Protocols in Ad Hoc Networks

Tags:
switching

Overview TCP/IP routing is the standard for static wired networks, but TCP/IP cannot quickly ad adjusts to change in network topology that at can occur in wireless ad hoc networks. A wireless ad hoc network's topology is dynamic because hosts eventually lose power, hosts' transmission on range may vary over time, hosts may become damaged, or hosts may enter or exit the network's transmission on range. These problems require new routing paths to be established to maintain network connectivity. The purpose of this research at Los Alamos Nation Lab is to improve, or at leas maintain, connectivity between hosts even when the network topology is drastically al altered.

Fly me to the moon (and let us email round the stars)

What they have come up with so far is to break the address of individual parts of the IPN into two parts: an admin part and a routing part. The admin part explains which system it is and the routing part shows what part of the IPN it is on.
