Abstract

Joining subnets in mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) environment. A method includes, based on SNR, power and data rate information between a first gateway node for a first subnet and a second gateway node for a second subnet, determining a rate at which the first and the second subnets can connect if nodes in the first subnet reduce signal transmit rate to a predetermined level. The method further includes as a result of determining that the determined rate meets or exceeds a predetermined threshold, then joining the first and second subnets by joining the first and second subnets via the first and second gateway nodes and causing nodes in the first subnet to reduce signal transmit rate to the predetermined level.
