Mobile Communication Networks with Range Restricted Channels.

Abstract

A graph model of a communication network is considered whose nodes represent the communication stations and whose links represent the communication channels. The links are undirected and there are no parallel links or self loops. The nodes are assumed to be 'mobile'; that is, their positions vary with time. A procedure is presented which translates the network from a given initial position to a given terminal position and insures that at each intermediate position the network remains in one connedted component subject to certain restrictions. Reliability functions are presented which allow the network elements, both links and nodes, to assume varying failure probabilities. At each network position, the survivability of the network is determined as a function of the link and node survivabilities by subjecting the network to a series of random attacks. (Author)
