Abstract :
In this paper we proposed ad hoc network path connectivity. As a complement, it is different from, but closely related to academically used graph connectivity definition. Our connectivity is proved to be less strict and more practical in consideration of ad hoc network operation. The characteristics of path connectivity are extensively investigated and its relationships between other common measurements of network connectivity are carefully studied.
