Self-organization and topology's control for mobile Ad-hoc networks

Abstract EN

The study and the implementation of routing algorithms to ensure the connexion of Ad-hoc networks as often defined (every summit may reach any other) is a hard task to achieve.

The environment is dynamic and evolves through time; the topology of network may change frequently.

Two distinct approaches tried to apprehend this problem.

The first one is based on a flat vision of network, and the second one on an auto-organization structure.

This paper deals with the study of auto-organization solution for Ad-hoc networks, and the benefit effects brought by this last to the routing-process.
