Abstract	This paper proposes an algorithm for coordinated adaptive movement of mobile nodes in a wireless ad-hoc network to maintain the neighbourhood topology by message communication. A wireless ad-hoc network operates without a fixed infrastructure and is mobile because of the proposed applications (battlefield, mountain climbing). A coordinator is elected within a network to control movement of the other nodes in the network by directing them to stop, start or rush. The coordinator is not a newly introduced node rather one of the member nodes. The concept is simulated in a few example networks. The sample simulation results, where snaps of movement for continuous two hours are collected, shows that the networks always remain connected during movement, for each network.
