Abstract

Although there has been a great amount of research work in ad hoc networks, most of the research assumes the nodes are homogeneous. All the nodes are assumed to have the same or similar radio propagation range, processing capability, battery power, storage, and so forth. In reality however, nodes in ad hoc networks tend to have heterogeneity. In the military scenarios for instance, the troop leader is usually equipped with more powerful networking devices than the soldiers of the troop. Radios installed in the vehicles such as tanks and jeeps have more capabilities than radios the soldiers carry, as vehicles do not have the same size- or power-constraints as the soldiers.
