Description
This book provides an introduction to opportunistic routing anemerging technology designed to improve the packet forwardingreliability, network capacity and energy efficiency of multihopwireless networks
This book presents a comprehensive background to thetechnological challenges lying behind opportunistic routing. Theauthors cover many fundamental research issues for this newconcept, including the basic principles, performance limit andperformance improvement of opportunistic routing compared totraditional routing, energy efficiency and distributedopportunistic routing protocol design, geographic opportunisticrouting, opportunistic broadcasting, and security issues associatedwith opportunistic routing, etc. Furthermore, the authors discusstechnologies such as multi-rate, multi-channel, multi-radiowireless communications, energy detection, channel measurement,etc. The book brings together all the new results on this topic ina systematic, coherent and unified presentation and provides a muchneeded comprehensive introduction to this topic.
Key Features:
* Addresses opportunistic routing, an emerging technologydesigned to improve the packet forwarding reliability, networkcapacity and energy efficiency of multihop wireless networks
* Discusses the technological challenges lying behind this newtechnology, and covers a wide range of practical implementationissues
