Abstract

This paper describes the possible prospects of a group-based ad hoc network. It presents the formation of a semi-ad hoc network of mobile hosts termed as a mobile users club. Using a DSR like protocol in such a network simplifies routing protocol selection. Communication through a club improves security in the inherently insecure mobile ad hoc network. Also it sustains variation in node population, node density, and node mobility. Apart from this, DS-CDMA technique used for medium access by the club members ensures better utilization of limited battery power and bandwidth.
