Abstract
Although ant-based routing protocols have been shown empirically to perform well in multi-hop wireless networks, there lack mathematical frameworks to rigorously characterize their behaviors. The paper takes the first and a modest step by modeling the cross-layer interaction between a basic ant-based routing protocol and a realistic medium access control protocol on a simple topology. The merit of the model is validated via comparison between the Matlab numerical analysis of equilibrium behavior and the QualNet simulation with realistic wireless communications. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
