ABSTRACT
We describe the design and implementation of an adhoc routing protocol that allows users to transmit their data in poorly-connected areas. This protocol is based on the following observation: while the wireless communication infrastructure (WiFi or cellular) is poor in developing countries, the number of WiFi-enabled mobile devices is rapidly increasing even in rural areas of these countries. Furthermore, most of these devices are GPS-enabled or have mechanisms to determine their current location (latitude and longitude). The protocol builds an adhoc wireless network using these mobile devices, and uses location information of these devices to route data packets to a close-by node that is connected to the Internet. This node can be an IP router, a cellphone that has Internet connection, or an Internet kiosk.

An Enhanced AODV Routing Protocol for Vehicular Adhoc Networks
BDAW '16: Proceedings of the International Conference on Big Data and Advanced Wireless TechnologiesThe key difference of Vehicular Ad- hoc Network (VANET) and Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is the exceptional mobility pattern and quick variability variable of network topology. The existing MANET routing protocols are inadequate for the VANET. One good ...

Influence of Routing Protocols in Performance of Wireless Mobile Adhoc Network
EAIT '11: Proceedings of the 2011 Second International Conference on Emerging Applications of Information TechnologyAn ad hoc network is a collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically forming a temporary network without the use of any existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. A number of routing protocols such as Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), ...
