Routing for Wireless Multi-Hop Networks

The focus of this brief is to identify what unifies and what distinguishes the routing functions in four wireless multi-hop network paradigms. The brief introduces a generic routing model that can be used as a foundation of wireless multi-hop routing prool analysis and design. It demonstrates that suchmodel can be adopted by any wireless multi-hop routing prool. Also presented is a glimpse of the ideal wireless multi-hop routing prool along with several open issues.
