Netw. The International Journal of Wireless Information Networks is a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research on wireless networks, including sensor networks, mobile ad hoc networks, wireless personal area networks, wireless LANs, indoor positioning systems, wireless health, body area networking, cyber-physical systems, and ...
v. t. e. Wi-Fi ( / ˈwaɪfaɪ /) [1] [a] is a family of wireless network protocols based on the IEEE 802.11 family of standards, which are commonly used for local area networking of devices and Internet access, allowing nearby digital devices to exchange data by radio waves. These are the most widely used computer networks, used globally in ...
Wireless network. A wireless network is a computer network that uses wireless data connections between network nodes. [1] Wireless networking allows homes, telecommunications networks and business installations to avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations.

In the early 1960s a stochastic geometry model [5] was developed to study wireless networks. This model is considered to be pioneering and the origin of continuum percolation. [6] Network models based on geometric probability were later proposed and used in the late 1970s [7] and continued throughout the 1980s [8] [9] for examining packet radio ...

Haas is a professor and distinguished chair in computer science, University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) also the professor emeritus in electrical and computer engineering, Cornell University. His research interests include ad hoc networks, [1] wireless networks, [2] sensor networks, [3] and zone routing protocols. [4]
Wireless Personal Communications is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Springer Science+Business Media. It covers mobile communications and computing and investigates theoretical, engineering, and experimental aspects of radio communications, voice, data, images, and multimedia. This includes propagation, system models, speech and ...
Characteristics. Techniques. v. t. e. Wireless communication (or just wireless, when the context allows) is the transfer of information ( telecommunication) between two or more points without the use of an electrical conductor, optical fiber or other continuous guided medium for the transfer. The most common wireless technologies use radio waves.
Wireless ad hoc network. A wireless ad hoc network [1] ( WANET) or mobile ad hoc network ( MANET) is a decentralized type of wireless network. The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure, such as routers or wireless access points. Instead, each node participates in routing by forwarding data for other nodes.
