As network centric warfare becoming the key concept
in the modern military doctrine, tactical wireless networks
have been used extensively throughout military operations for
sharing crucial information among deployed units. Most tactical
wireless networks are operating in a hostile environment, in which
normal network operation cannot be easily achieved. In military
operations, tactical wireless networks have high demands for
robustness, responsiveness, reliability, availability and security.
These requires continuous development of new technologies in
order to cope with random behaviours of hostile environment.
However, the random behaviour of tactical wireless networks under
hostile environment has not been fully understood. This paper
provides a survey on current issues, and research challenges in
tactical wireless networks due to hostile environment. Several
research gaps in performance, security, routing, and management
of tactical wireless networks that are needed to be improved, are
pointed out to pave the way for future research in this area. This
paper provides insight understanding about the issues and trends
for future development of tactical wireless networks. |
