Routing plays a critical role in determining the performance of a multi-hop wireless mesh network. When there are a large number of nodes available the task of communication becomes quite challenging. Our main concern is energy-efficient routing. Energy conservation is a critical issue in wireless networks for node and network lifetime, as the nodes are powered by batteries only. One major approach...
The Internet comprises access segments with wired and wireless technologies. In the future, we can expect wireless mesh infrastructures (WMIs) to proliferate in this context. Due to the relatively low energy efficiency of wireless transmission, as compared to wired transmission, energy consumption of WMIs can represent a significant part of the energy consumption of the Internet as a whole. We explore...
Wireless ad-hoc networking will be a fundamental component of emerging technologies such as multi-hop cellular networks, vehicular ad-hoc networks and wireless mesh networks, with most of these technologies based on evolved versions of the 802.11 standard. To achieve their expected benefits, and address their challenges, in terms of energy efficiency, reliability or reconfigurability, advanced cooperative...
Today, municipalities are planning to deploy metro-scale two-tier wireless mesh networks at a rapid pace. Fittingly, the IEEE 802.11s standard is being developed to allow interoperability between heterogeneous mesh network devices. In this article we describe and discuss how the initial standard addresses key factors for standardization of these networks: Efficient allocation of mesh resources at...
