line 1. INTRODUCTION Wireless ad hoc networks have emerged to support applications‚ in which it is required/desired to have wireless variety of devices without relying on communications among a any infrastructure or central management. In ad hoc networks‚ wireless devices‚ simply called nodes‚ have limited transmission range. Therefore‚ each node can directly communicate with only those within its transmission range (i.e.‚ its neighbours) and requires other nodes to act as routers in

Wired and Wireless Media Wired and wireless media both provide means of transporting data. Though both provide benefits in certain areas‚ neither is particularly better than the other. It is important for organizations to utilize both methods of media to maximize what benefits each provides while minimizing that same media types short comings. Anders (2010) uses six metrics to compare wireless and wired media: range‚ installation effort and flexibility‚ data volume‚ availability of information in
