THROUGHPUT ANALYSIS OF WIRELESS MESH NETWORK

Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is a combination of both wireless and ad hoc technologies, thus having the advantages of low cost, reliability and scalability. It is indeed becoming an appealing choice for the construction of community network to extend internet services. However, these potentials ca...
