ABSTRACT
Over the last few years we have deployed several ad hoc network test beds in France Telecom R&D premises. These test beds aim at understanding the behavior of ad hoc networks under realistic scenarios. They also provide accurate and understandable results for building a realistic simulation model in order to break the gap between simulation studies and reality. The current tests are limited to measures on SNR and routing protocol but present interesting results such as the instability of the network topology due to environmental constraint variation and human presence that has effect similar to node mobility on routing table states.

Recommendations
MAC-Aware Concentrated Multi-Point Relay Selection Algorithm in Ad Hoc Networks
In OLSR, only selected Multipoint Relays (MPRs) are allowed to forward broadcast data during the flooding process, which reduces the message transmission overhead. Since every node in a network selects its own MPRs independently, many nodes may be MPRs ...
Comparison of reactive and proactive routing protocols for different mobility conditions in WSN
ICCCS '11: Proceedings of the 2011 International Conference on Communication, Computing & SecurityAd hoc networks prove to be challenging networks for communication due to its resource constrained nature and frequent changes in the network topology. Though a lot of research has been going on in the various parts of the world for optimization of ...
Multipoint relay selection for robust broadcast in ad hoc networks
Broadcasting is a frequently used technique in a wireless ad hoc network not only to deliver protocol control information but also application data. Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) uses Multipoint Relay (MPR) to flood Topology Control (TC) message ...
