Wireless Networks and Mobile Computing
Chapman & Hall/CRC (Verlag)
978-1-4822-2793-2 (ISBN)
Wireless Networks and Mobile Computing begins with an introduction to the different types of wireless networks, including Wi-Fi, ZigBee, cellular mobile, ad hoc, cognitive radio, wireless mesh, and wireless sensor. Subsequent chapters address more advanced topics such as:
Mobility, bandwidth, and node location management issues in mobile networks
Message communication techniques and protocols in ad hoc networks
Recent research and future direction of wireless local area networks (WLANs)
Deployment of sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs)
Energy-efficient communication in wireless networks
Security aspects of wireless communication
The book includes exercises at the end of every chapter to help give students a better insight into the topics presented. It includes a number of advanced-level exercises, which are research problems that may be taken up by researchers in the respective areas. This book provides a valuable reference for classroom study/teaching as well as for technology development and research in the relevant areas.
