Abstract: | We propose Adaptive Backbone Protocol ABP, a lightweight protocol for distributed formation of a backbone over Heterogeneous Wireless Networks. ABP does not require any neighborhood information and consequently scales well with the number of nodes and network size. We present an analytical framework to study the performance of ABP. By making the nodes rotate the role of backbone nodes, we extend the life of the network. |
