Wireless mesh networks are primarily used to provide Internet access by sharing the Internet
connections of a limited number of gateways. If traffic is routed in the mesh without …

In wireless mesh networks (WMNs), gateway nodes may become a severe bottleneck for
Internet flows. Indeed, if traffic is routed in the mesh without considering traffic distribution, as …

In this paper we consider wireless mesh networks (WMNs) used to share the Internet
connectivity of sparsely deployed fixed lines with heterogeneous capacity, ranging from ISP …

Wireless mesh networking has emerged as a promising technology in providing economical
and scalable broadband Internet accesses. A wireless mesh network consists of mesh …

Wireless mesh networks (WMN) provide network access for mobile users. Therefore, most
traffic flows in WMNs are to and from the wired networks. Some mesh nodes, called …

In practical wireless mesh networks (WMNs), gateways are subject to hard capacity limits on
the aggregate number of flows (in terms of bit rate) that they can support. Thus, if traffic is …

As a new type of wireless network architecture, because of its self-organization, and support
multi-hop and heterogeneous networks, Wireless Mesh networks has played an important …

Traffic routing and gateway selection for Internet flows play a crucial role in determining the
performance of WMNs. Optimal routing strategies have been derived under the assumption …

Routing metrics play a critical role in wireless mesh networks (WMNs). Several metrics have
already been proposed but none of them can effectively capture both local traffic load and …

Wireless Mesh networks will play an important role in the next generation wireless
communication systems because it can support broadband services with ubiquitous …
