Title
Wireless communications: Requirements and implementation for ad-hoc networks
Abstract
The paper discusses innovative wide-area multi-hop ad-hoc created wireless communications, and shows how ad-hoc networks CAN allow complex wide area mobile home and office communications with forwarding to be set up. It lists Bluetooth, IEEE 802.1 and HiperLAN/2 specifications, and introduces the term "piconet", describing mobile networks, which may have temporarily fixed locations. The paper mentions the possibility of motor vehicle control under heavy traffic conditions, where vehicle column positioning is organised between the cars, without involvement of the drivers, and defines routing protocols of proactive or reactive form, such as OSPF (open shortest path first) and DSDV (destination sequence distance vector). The paper closes by examining the possibility of Bluetooth LAN networks, and notes the importance of scalability for ad-hoc networks.
