Research on Cross-Layer Optimization for Intra-Flight Ad Hoc Networks

With high-speed nodes, dynamic topology, and fluctuant transmission quality, intra-flight ad hoc networks are always blocked by the lack of availabilities. After analyzing the requirements of intra-flight ad hoc networks, and the challenges of traditional hierarchical protocol model, this paper proposes a cross-layer protocol model and its optimization approaches, and indicates the problems encountered and technology directions, providing references for protocol design of intra-flight ad hoc networks.
