Abstract-- Energy consumption and network connectivity are
two of the important research issues that are yet to be resolved
in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). As taken advantage of
in static networks, reliable topology control algorithms are also
considered to be a good approach for mobile networks. However,
a more adequate evaluation of these algorithms regarding mo-
bility is still needed. In this paper, we evaluate the performance
of some well-known topology control algorithms with various
scenarios and measurements. The results show that Local Tree-
based Reliable Topology (LTRT), a recently proposed algorithm,
