【Abstract】A new technique for analyzing connectivity of Mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET) based on the model of Markov chain model is proposed. A Markov chain model for computing reliability of nodes in the network is established. A Markov chain model of transition of the number of residual nodes and damaged nodes in the network is established, based on which the formulas for computing the probability of connectivity of the node probabilistic networks are proposed. Simulations based on Matlab are used to verify the validity of the analytical formulas. 【Key words】Mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET); node probabilistic network; connectivity; Markov chain model
