Mobile Ad Hoc Network Protocols Based on Dissimilarity Metrics

This SpringerBrief presents the design and performance evaluation of communication protocols based on dissimilarity metrics for wireless multihop networks. Dissimilarity metrics are used to infer the network topology based solely on local information to efficiently disseminate packets throughout the network, reducing both redundancy and congestion which is covered in this brief. The performance evaluation of the proposed communication protocols has been conducted by both meticulous simulation an
