Abstract

Wireless Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET) provideend-users with a flexible and heap way to access and ex-change information. While most research in MANETs is ori-ented to the general application environments, little work isdone to utilize the specific characteristics of particular ap-plication scenarios, in which end-users' behavior is quitepredictable or controllable. To deploy a MANET for a par-ticular realistic system, the end-users 'behavior, or profiles,can be used to simplify the implementation and enhance thenetwork performance. In this paper, we present a schemeto simplify routing strategy in MANET with the help of end-users' mobility profiles. We also study how the routing strat-egy improves the network performance in a realistic citytransportation system.
