Abstract

Due to the limited bandwidth of the wireless links in ad hoc networks, compressing the packet headers is an attractive method for efficient usage of the frequency spectrum and for performance enhancement. The objective of this work is to demonstrate the use of a novel end-to-end header compression technique for multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks. Our preliminary analysis shows a significant performance improvement when the proposed Routing-Assisted Header Compression (RAHC) technique is implemented in conjunction with conventional on-demand routing techniques for ad hoc networks.
