Ad Hoc Wireless Networks: A Communication-theoretic Perspective.9780470091104 Ad hoc For this purpose. Meaning "to this" in Latin, it refers to dealing with special situations as they occur rather than functions that are repeated on a regular basis. See ad hoc query and ad hoc mode. wireless networks; a communication-theoretic perspective. Tonguz, Ozan K. and Gianluigi Ferrari. John Wiley John Wiley may refer to:

A sensor network implies limited or no controller functions. Multiple sensor networks may be coupled to form device networks. See industrial control network. , Tonguz (Carnegie Mellon U., US) and Ferrari (U. of Parma, Italy) don't attempt to provide a comprehensive treatment, preferring to draw out the interdependencies and interrelationships of the different layers of the protocol stack The set of protocols used in a communications network. A protocol stack is a prescribed hierarchy of software layers, starting from the application layer at the top (the source of the data being sent) to the data link layer at the bottom (transmitting the bits on the wire). and the related different approaches to design, including the routing- based, information- theoretic, dynamic control, and game-theoretic approaches. Synthesizing these into a communication-theoretic framework, they discuss connectivity in ad hoc wireless networks, effective transport capacity in ad hoc wireless networks, impact of mobility on the performance of multi-hop ad hoc wireless networks, route reservation, optimal common transmit power, and a cross-layer perspective on the routing problem in ad hoc wireless networks.
