A scalable routing protocol for hybrid wireless mesh networks

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have emerged as a key technology for next-generation wireless networking. However, several challenging research issues need to be resolved. One of the most effective factors to be improved is the routing protocol used to be robust, scalable, secured and efficient. This...
