An Ad Hoc Network is a type of wireless network that is created spontaneously without a pre-existing infrastructure. Devices in this network communicate directly with each other, forming a temporary connection. This setup is often used in situations where traditional networks are unavailable, such as during emergencies or in remote locations.
In an Ad Hoc Network, each device acts as both a host and a router, allowing data to be transmitted between devices without relying on a central server. This decentralized approach enables flexibility and quick deployment, making it suitable for applications like military operations, disaster recovery, and collaborative work.
