Abstract—TCP/IP model is a dominant layered stack for wired networks but from the evolution of wireless technologies such as WiFi, WiMax, 3G/4G, ZigBee, sensor networks and satellites communication systems, these systems have posed specific challenges to support Quality of Service (QoS), mobility and handover, link adaptation, energy constraint performance, and security. To solve these problems TCP/IP model should be enforced. Cross-layer architectures have shown great performance improvement and it may shape the future of wireless networks. In this paper, we list several cross-layer models and parameter to design and address important issues and challenges to develop cross-layer stack. Moreover, we discuss standardization, complex architecture, solicitous design, and implementation issues to build cross-layer architectures. Further, we develop a cross-layer model in ad hoc network for transmitting power control to reduce collision.
