TCP Performance in hybrid Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (Paperback)

Nowadays a lot of research efforts focus on Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs). A MANET is a collection of mobile autonomous nodes, which can move arbitrary, leading to a constantly changing network topology. However, today most of the information is still stored on wired servers. Due to the different topological natures of wired and MANET networks, interconnectivity is not trivial. To further complicate the situation the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is designed for wired networks, in a MANET with different link and route characteristics, as multihop and frequent packet losses, the performance of current TCP proposals drop considerably. The purpose of this book is to give an overview of the current MANET Internet connectivity situation and to evaluate TCP performance in a hybrid MANET where mobile nodes connect to a wired network through a gateway.
