ABSTRACT:
A wireless device for use in an ad hoc network is provided. The wireless device includes a transceiver, a global positioning system, and a controller. The transceiver is capable of receiving positional information from a plurality of remote users. The global positioning system is capable of generating positional information regarding the wireless device. The controller selects a first portion of the plurality of remote users to be within a pro active region of the ad hoc network based upon the positional information, and then maintains information on the remote users selected to be within the pro active region.
