Implementing MANETS in Android Based Environment using Wi-Fi Direct

摘要

Packet loss occurs in real-time voice transmission over wireless broadcast Ad-hoc network which creates disruptions in sound. Basic objective of this research is to design a wireless Ad-hoc network based on two Android devices by using the Wireless Fidelity (WIFI) Direct Application Programming Interface (API) and apply the Network Codec, Reed Solomon Code. The network codec is used to encode the data of a music wav file and recover the lost packets if any, packets are dropped using a loss module at the transmitter device to analyze the performance with the objective of retrieving the original file at the receiver device using the network codec. This resulted in faster transmission of the files despite dropped packets. In the end both files had the original formatted music files with complete performance analysis based on the transmission delay.
