Abstract
Wireless networks provide mobile users with ubiquitous communicating capability and information access regardless of location. Conventional ground radio networks are the "last hop" extension of a wireline network, thus supporting only single hop communications within a "cell". In this dissertation we address a novel type of wireless networks called "multihop" networks. As a difference from "single hop" (i.e., cellular) networks which require fixed base stations interconnected by a wired backbone, multihop networks have no fixed based stations nor a wired backbone. The main application for mobile wireless multihopping is rapid deployment and dynamic reconfiguration. When the wireline network is not available, as in battlefield communications and search and rescue operations, multihop wireless network...
