N2 - In ad hoc networks, relay nodes use their limited resources such as battery capacity, CPU, buffer, etc. to support other nodes' communications. This discourages users from joining an ad hoc network and becoming a relay node. Receiving a reward for supporting relay may encourage users to join such networks. This research focuses on the factors of residual battery power, and time during which AC power supply is not available. In this paper, the willingness to receive reward for relay in ad hoc networks is investigated by questionnaire survey. The relation between such factors and the willingness to receive rewards for relay is analysed quantitatively and models of willingness to receive reward for relay are estimated.
