Types of Wireless Networks

Infrastructure based(Cellular Network).

Infrastructureless Network(Mobile Ad hoc
NETwork) (MANET).


INTRODUCTION


Rapidly deployable, self configuring.
No need for existing infrastructure.
Wireless links.
Nodes are mobile, topology can be very dynamic.
Nodes must be able to relay traffic since
communicating nodes might be out of range.
A MANET can be a standalone network or it can
be connected to external networks(Internet).


History of MANETs

Earliest MANETs were called “packet radio” networks, sponsored by DARPA (1970)
These packet radio systems predated the Internet and were part of motivation of the original IP suite
Later DARPA experiments included the Survivable Radio Network (SURAN) project (1980s)
1990s – the advent of inexpensive 802.11 radio cards for personal computer
Current MANETs are designed primary for military utility; examples include JTRS (Joint Tactical Radio System) and NTDR (Near-Term Digital Radio).
