Ad Hoc Networks

Ad hoc networks are temporary wireless connections formed spontaneously between devices without relying on centralized infrastructure like routers or access points. Each device in the network directly communicates with nearby devices, sharing data and resources as needed. These networks are flexible and useful in situations such as emergencies, events, or military operations where setting up traditional infrastructure isn’t practical. Because they are dynamically created and managed, ad hoc networks can efficiently adapt to changing conditions, making them ideal for short-term or location-specific communication needs.
