Multi-Channel Access has the potential to solve the throughput and scalability issues that mar the performance of 802.11 mesh and adhoc networks. It allows multiple simultaneous transmissions in a radio neighborhood thereby increasing network throughput and scalability. In spite of this potential, it is limited to simulation studies and its implementation on hardware is rare. In this demo, we d...
