Research And Implementation Of Ad-Hoc Network Management Technology

Recently, with the rapid development of computer science and wireless communications, advanced wireless mobile technique will be widely applied. So far, most mobile communications need wired foundational instrument. In order to communicate in the areas without fixed base station, a new network technology named Ad hoc network appears. This kind of network does not need the support of wired devices, and makes the communication implemented by the mobile hosts. The appearance of Ad hoc network has widened the implementation of communications in any situation. Also it provides effective solutions for military communications, disaster rescue and temporary communications.The dynamic, variable and multi-hoped topology of mobile Ad hoc network makes itself a robust and effective wireless mobile network. But, because of the characteristics, the management of the network is quite difficult.This paper first states the principles of Ad hoc network and points out the differences between other networks and Ad hoc, then analyses several management modes and gives their positive and negative traits. After that the paper proposes a scheme of the Ad hoc network management and the realization of part of it, finally discusses some research directions.
