Improving Ad Hoc Network Performance With Backbone Topology Control
White Papers Therefore, this paper proposes to deploy a controlled backbone in the ad hoc environment using movable mobile routers. An important means to provide connectivity in areas where no access point is directly available is ad hoc networking.

Queue Management For Short-Lived TCP Flows In Backbone Routers
White Papers Backbone routers are generally engineered to have large buffers, in which packets may wait as long as half a second (assuming FIFO service, longer otherwise). Packets in the Internet can experience large queueing delays during busy periods.
