Interference-Aware Channel Assignment in Wireless Mesh Networks

چکیده
The increased popularity and the growth in the number of deployed IEEE 802.11 Access Points (APs) have raised the opportunity to merge together various disjointed wireless LANs to form a unique wireless mesh network (WMN). In this architecture only few nodes, called Portals (MPPs), interface to the external world thanks to their bridging/gateway functions, while several Mesh Points (MPs) form a wireless backbone acting as relay nodes. But MPs are also able to provide network access to user devices (stations) that are inside their coverage range (thus becoming Mesh Access Points, MAPs). As a result, WMNs are supposed to handle a large amount of traffic, including flows that demand specific requirements, such as VoIP calls or multimedia broadcasting.

Interference-Aware and Cluster Based Multicast Routing in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Wireless Mesh Networks
Multicast routing is one of the most important services in Multi Radio Multi Channel (MRMC) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). Multicast routing performance in WMNs could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. In this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in WMNs. The channels...

Many appealing multicast services such as on-demand TV, teleconference, online games and etc. can benefit from high available bandwidth in multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks. When multiple simultaneous transmissions use a similar channel to transmit data packets, network performance degrades to a large extant. Designing a good multicast tree to route data packets could enhance the...
