Abstract

A mobile infrastructure assisted ad-hoc network increases the number of nodes capable of being serviced by the network by selectively choosing those protocols for selected nodes which minimize overhead with the freed up bandwidth permitting an increase in the overall number of nodes serviceable by the ad-hoc network to as many as 1,000 nodes. In one embodiment node dynamicity is determining factor as to what protocol will be used.
