Control-Based Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (CBMANET)
Abstract
(U) The Control-Based Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (CBMANET) program developed an adaptive networking capability that dramatically improved performance and reduced life-threatening communication failures in complex communication networks. The program focused on tactical mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) that were inadequately supported with commercial technology. To address this problem, the CBMANET program exploited recent optimization-theoretic breakthroughs, recent information-theoretic breakthroughs, and comprehensive cross-layer design to develop a network stack from first principles with specific attention to support for DoD applications such as multicast voice video, chat, file transfer, and situation awareness.
