A fault-tolerant multi-path multi-channel routing protocol for Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks
Cognitive Radio (CR) has been proposed as a promising technology to solve the problem of radio spectrum shortage and spectrum underutilization. In Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks (CRAHNs), which operate without centralized infrastructure support, the data routing is one of the most important issues...
