Summary:This article describes our experiences building a multihop
wireless ad hoc network of eight nodes driving around a 700 m by 300 m
site. Each node runs the dynamic source routing protocol and interfaces
seamlessly with existing Internet infrastructure and the Mobile IP
protocol. We present quantitative results from data collected during
runs of our testbed under a composite workload including voice, bulk
data, and real-time data. Based on careful analysis of our data, we
highlight radio propagation issues that network protocols will need to
address in the future
