"Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks: Protocol Design" ed. by Xin Wang

This book is targeted to provide network engineers and researchers with design guidelines for large scale wireless ad hoc networks. This book includes state-of-the-art techniques and solutions for wireless ad-hoc networks. It focuses on the following topics in ad-hoc networks: quality-of-service and video communication, routing protocol and cross-layer design. A few interesting problems about security and delay-tolerant networks are also discussed.

Being infrastructure-less and without central administration control, wireless ad-hoc networking is playing a more and more important role in extending the coverage of traditional wireless infrastructure (cellular networks, wireless LAN, etc).
