A distributed algorithm for a back-bone planar subnetwork selection in a MANET to improve the efficiency of face routing algorithm

This thesis proposes a new method of using face routing [2] in an ad hoc, position-based, network that aims to lower the hop count of routes. In our method, we first establish a back-bone subnetwork of a given mobile ad hoc network (MANET). This back-bone subnetwork includes only some nodes of the M...
