The Wireless Mesh Network uses a wireless communication technology with transmission rates simular to a cable which is used as a backbone networks. The topology structure is in a Mesh form which resembles an Ad-hoc networks. However, a metric is needed in order to set the channel access control method to operate intentions and interior motions are different. In this document, an efficient channel for delivering datas to improve access controls to a wireless mesh networks. The improved performance of the proposed plan is for a hidden and exposed mesh client through an exclusive channels to perform a proposed and analyzed methods.

Wireless mesh networks contain multi-hop routing protocols between wireless nodes and are connected to the Internet through a gateway. These networks perform a role as a backbone and are scalable for main applications. We propose the design of QoS supporting mechanisms for wireless mesh networks using software defined networking. Our proposed scheme is cost-effective and features adaptive QoS mechanisms for wireless router's resource constraints. The QoS mechanisms use software defined networking technology with Openflow protocol based on diffserv and intserv models with MPLS mechanism and RSVP respectively. A performance evaluation model is suggested to verify the validity of the proposed scheme using several QoSmetrics of the wireless mesh networks.

The performance in combination of wired and wireless mesh network which will be a main access network in future internet is directly linked with service quality to users. In this paper, we evaluate variant TCP performance and analyze traffic characteristics on Wireless (Seoul National University Mesh testbed) - Wired (KOREN/Abilene) - Wireless (HP Mesh testbed in the USA) Network. We found that RTT is proper in this network to serve a VoIP service. Also we propose an enhanced TCP protocol which can perform well in both wireless network which has many packet losses and wired network which has high bandwidth and long delay.

Due to its ease of deployment, low cost, self-configuring and self-healing capabilities, Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have emerged as a key technology to be used in a wide scale applications in personal, local, campus, and metropolitan areas. Security and more specifically privacy is an important issue in this type of multi-hop WMN which has given a little attention in the research community. We focus on privacy compromise of a mesh client in a community mesh network that may lead an attacker to reveal mesh clients identity. his other profiles and gain information about mobility. In this paper. we have presented an authentication mechanism with the aid of blind signature that ensures a mesh client to anonymously authenticate itself with a nearby mesh router and thereby preserve identity privacy We have also presented the security and performance analysis of the proposed scheme.

본 논문은 Wireless Mesh Network를 위한 새로운 MAC 프로토콜의 설계에 관해 기술한다. Mesh Network는 Mesh Router에 의해 무선 인프라를 구성한다. WMN(Wireless Mesh Network)는 고정된 상태의 Mesh Router에 의한 인프라를 구성하고 인터넷과 같은 기존의 인프라와 연결되는 구조적 특징을 가진다. 또한 다양한 응용분야의 지원을 위한 QoS(Quality of Service)가 요구되어지기 때문에 end-to-end 전송 지연, 공정성, 그리고 데이터 손실 등 많은 사항을 고려한 프로토콜의 설계가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 WMN의 이러한 특징을 지원하기 위한 토폴로지의 제안과 TDMA를 활용한 MAC 프로토콜을 설계하였으며, NS-2 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 측정하였다.

Clustering is a topology control approach often used in wireless ad hoc networks to improve scalability and prolong network lifetime. Furthermore, it is also employed to provide semi-management functionalities and capacity enhancement. The usage of clustering topology control technique can also be applied to multi-radio wireless mesh network. This would utilize the advantages of the multi-radio implementation in the network. The aggregation would result to a more stable, connected, scalable and energy-efficient network. On this paper, we design a clustering algorithm for multi-radio wireless mesh network that would use these advantages and would take into consideration both mobility and heterogeneity of the network entities. We also show that the algorithm terminates at a definite time t and the message control overhead complexity is of constant order of O(1) per node.

In this paper, we propose a QoS routing protocol for WiMAX based wireless mesh networks. The proposed routing protocol is a proactive hop-by-hop QoS routing protocol. It can find an optimal route that satisfies QoS requirements using bandwidth and delay as QoS parameters. In this paper, we first present a network model for WIMAX based wireless mesh networks and explain why QoS routing protocol is the most appropriate for WiMAX based wireless mesh networks. Then, we propose a proactive hop-by-hop QoS routing protocol that meets QoS requirements of traffic flowing between mesh client and the gateway. The simulation results show that the proposed routing protocol outperforms QOLSR protocol in terms of end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio and routing overhead.

Throughput improvement problem in wireless mesh network can be alleviated by equipped mesh router with multiple radios tuned into orthogonal channels. However, some links on the same channel also can be activated concurrently if the Signal-to-Noise and Interference Ratio (SNIR) at their receiver endpoints is not lower than the threshold. We propose a greedy algorithm to investigate the problem of how to schedule a set of feasible transmission under physical interference model by using the spatial time-division multiple-access (STDMA) scheme. We also consider the fairness in scheduling to prevent some border nodes from starvation. We evaluate our algorithms through extensive simulation and the results show that our algorithms can achieve better aggregate throughput and fairness performance than 802.11 standard.

In this paper, we propose an anycast routing scheme for large-scale wireless mesh networks, which requires only one-hop local information with no flooding overhead. We develop an analytical model for anycast mesh networks based on an electrostatic theory. A finite difference method contributes to achieving gateway load balancing with constant control overheads. We verify the performance of the proposed scheme by simulations.

Wireless Mesh Network has drawn much attention due to wide area service coverage with low system cost. However, there is a bottleneck problem in wireless mesh network since the traffic is aggregated into a gateway. Placement of multi-radio can easy the bottleneck problem, but without careful design it results in unnecessary system cost increasement. In this paper, we propose a system cost minimization through differential antenna placement where optimum antenna placement is determined by the required wireless link capacity. With CPLEX program, optimum number of antennae is determined as a function of local user traffic and gateway capacity. From numerical analysis, it is confirmed that our proposed model can solve bottleneck problem, and at the same time save the system cost.
