Abstract :
An analysis of network connectivity of one-dimensional mobile ad hoc networks with a particular mobility scheme is presented, focusing on the random waypoint mobility scheme. The numerical results are verified using simulation to show their accuracy under practical network conditions. Observations on RWP properties further lead to approximations and an eventual simple network connectivity formula.
