Abstract

The performance of the mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is sensitive to nodes mobility which results in connectivity dynamics. In this paper, we focus on two issues: (i) How the mobility impacts on connectivity dynamics? We find a proportional relation formula to explain it. (ii) How connectivity dynamics results in the change of network delay? We proposed a model to reveal how the connectivity dynamics and node number impact on delay.

Keywords: MANET; mobility; connectivity;delay; performance
