Topology control is fundamental to solving scalability and capacity
problems in large-scale wireless ad hoc and sensor networks.
Forthcoming wireless multi-hop networks such as ad hoc and
sensor networks will allow network nodes to control the
communication topology by choosing their transmitting ranges.
Briefly, "topology control" (TC) is the art of co-ordinating nodes'
decisions regarding their transmitting ranges, to generate a
network with the desired features. Building an optimized network
topology helps surpass the prevalent scalability and capacity
problems.
"Topology Control in Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks" makes
the case for topology control and provides an exhaustive coverage
of TC techniques in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks,
considering both stationary networks, to which most of the existing
solutions are tailored, and mobile networks. The author introduces
a new taxonomy of topology control and gives a full explication of
the applications and challenges of this important topic.
"Topology Control in Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: "
Defines topology control and explains its necessity, considering
both stationary and mobile networks. Describes the most
representative TC protocols and their performance. Covers the
critical transmitting range for stationary and mobile networks,
topology optimization problems such as energy efficiency, and
distributed topology control. Discusses implementation and 'open
issues', including realistic models and the effect of multi-hop
data traffic. Presents a case study on routing protocol design, to
demonstrate how TC can ease the design of cooperative routing
protocols.
This invaluable text will provide graduatestudents in Computer
Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Applied Mathematics
and Physics, researchers in the field of ad hoc networking, and
professionals in wireless telecoms as well as networking system
developers with a single reference resource on topology
control.
