Features: This book comprehensively introduces the new technology in the field of mobile communications—AdHoc network technology—and closely aligns with the characteristics of AdHoc networks, such as their decentralized, self-organizing, and freely mobile nature. It elaborates on and analyzes the advantages, existing issues, solution approaches, and future challenges of wireless communication networks without foundational infrastructure. The book focuses on AdHoc network topics such as hierarchical architecture, channel access, routing, clustering, power control, QoS assurance, network applications, and specific implementations. The author has extensive teaching and research experience in communication networks and has conducted long-term, in-depth research in various related fields of AdHoc network technology. Parts of this book are the results of these studies, many of which originate from corresponding original papers. The author and their research center have undertaken numerous research projects in the field of AdHoc networks, and relevant research findings are also cited in this book. By combining the rapidly developing AdHoc network technology with fundamental principles, the book provides both an accessible introduction to the basic concepts of AdHoc network technologies and a more in-depth exploration of their technical. This book can serve as a textbook or reference for senior undergraduate and graduate students in communication engineering, electronic information, and computer application engineering. It is also suitable for university teachers and engineering technicians in related fields.
