Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is an emerging wireless technology for various futuristic applications like video on demand, healthcare systems, disaster and emergency, modern intelligent transport systems, public security systems, broadband internet for home and campus networking. Routing is an important factor for forwarding a data packet from source node to destination node.Wireless routing is t...

Research into the analytical solutions for the capacity of the infrastructure wireless mesh networks (InfWMN) is highly interesting. An InfWMN is a hierarchical network consisting of mesh clients, mesh routers and gateways. The mesh routers form a wireless mesh infrastructure to which the mesh clients are connected through the use of star topology. The previous analytical solutions have only in...

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) is gaining wide acceptance in wireless network users due to its unique features. It is also capturing major share of attention amongst researchers as it is in its evolutionary stage and its performance is still under observation. This paper discusses the performance of wireless mesh network where cluster of static nodes is associated with cluster head which serves ...

In wireless mesh network, environmental conditions and location of “nodes” on the network are largely unpredictable and in a constant state of change. Heterogeneous signal propagation patterns in addition to interference from existing infrastructure pose significant challenges for a wireless mesh network design. In this paper, we explore, by experiments, link performance results produced at Qat...

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have emerged recently as a technology for next-generation wireless networking. They consist of mesh routers and clients, where mesh routers are almost static and form the backbone of WMNs. WMNs provide network access for both mesh and conventional clients. In this paper we propose MobiSEC, a complete security architecture that provides both access control for mesh ...

Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is considered to be an effective solution to support multimedia services in last miles due to their automatic configuration and low cost deployment. The main feature of WMNs is multihop communications which may result in increased region coverage, better robustness and more capacity. Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) will play an important role in the next-generation wir...

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) consist of mesh routers and mesh clients, where mesh routers have minimal mobility and form the backbone of WMNs. They provide network access for both mesh and conventional clients. The integration of WMNs with other networks such as the Internet, cellular, IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.15, IEEE 802.16, sensor networks, etc., can be accomplished through the gateway and bri...
