The performance and reliability of wireless network protocols heavily depend on the network and its environment. In wireless networks node mobility can affect the overall performance up to a point where, e.g. route discovery and route establishment fail. As a consequence any formal technique for performance analysis of wireless network protocols should take node mobility into account. These model accompany the paper Topology-based Mobility Models for Wireless Networks. In this paper we proposed a topology-based mobility model, that abstracts from physical behaviour, and models mobility as probabilistic changes in the topology. We illustrate this by two application examples: first we show a brief analysis of the Ad-hoc On demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol, and second we combine the mobility model with the Lightweight Medium Access Control (LMAC).
