在军事和救援应用的移动的ad hoc网络中，所有的节点都属于同一个权威，因此，他们的动机是合作，以支持网络的基本功能。在本文中，我们考虑的情况下，每个节点都是自己的权威，并试图最大化它从网络中获得的利益。更准确地说，我们假设节点不愿意转发数据包的其他节点的利益。这个问题可能出现在移动的ad hoc网络的民用应用中。为了激励节点进行数据包转发，我们提出了一个简单的机制，在每个节点的计数器的基础上。我们研究的行为所提出的机制分析和模拟的手段，并详细说明了它可以防止滥用的方式。
In military and rescue applications of mobile ad hoc networks, all the nodes belong to the same authority; therefore, they are motivated to cooperate in order to support the basic functions of the network. In this paper, we consider the case when each node is its own authority and tries to maximize the benefits it gets from the network. More precisely, we assume that the nodes are not willing to forward packets for the benefit of other nodes. This problem may arise in civilian applications of mobile ad hoc networks. In order to stimulate the nodes for packet forwarding, we propose a simple mechanism based on a counter in each node. We study the behavior of the proposed mechanism analytically and by means of simulations, and detail the way in which it could be protected against misuse.
