| Summary: | Wireless mesh networks (WMN) have been envisioned as an impol1ant solution to the next generation wireless networking. It is a special kind of multihop wireless network that consists of mesh routers and mesh clients [I]. Typically. mesh routers are static and power-enabled and
they !(xm a wireless backbone for the WMNs while connected with the wired networks to prm ide multi-hop wireless intemet connectivity to the mesh clients. Mesh clients may be mobile and they can access the network via mesh routers or directly by forming a mesh with each other. |
