IMRR and IMPR Routing Protocols For Inter and Intra Wireless Mesh Communications
Given the evolution of wireless technologies, Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) have appeared as an emerging low-cost solution to ensure last-mile connectivity to the Internet network. However, providing real-time and streaming applications, such as VoIP (Voice over IP) and VoD (Video on Demand), with a satisfying QoS level is considered as an important challenge within these networks. In this paper, we propose a QoS based routing protocol, called Hybrid QoS Mesh Routing (HQMR), jointly with a clustering algorithm to improve the scalability of mesh networks. HQMR is composed of two routing sub- protocols: a reactive QoS based routing protocol for intra-mesh infrastructure communications and a pr…
Self-configuring multipath intra-mesh infrastructure QoS based routing
International audience; Multi-path routing concept was largely exploited in wireless networks to provide benefits such as fault tolerance, load balancing, performance improvement in terms of latency, etc. In this paper, we propose a multi-path routing based protocol named MP-IMRR (Multi-path Intra-Mesh infrastructure Routing protocol) to improve our previously defined QoS based routing protocol for wireless mesh networks (i.e. IMRR). MP-IMRR is defined in order to achieve better reactivity and faster recovery from eventual route failures than the IMRR protocol by adopting the backup routes concept. Besides, given the complexity increase while considering network management systems, we adopt…
QoS Multi-tree Based Routing Protocol for Inter-mesh Infrastructure Communications
Part 5: Network Protocols; International audience; Quality of service (QoS) in wireless mesh networks (WMN) is an active area of research, which is driven by the increasing demand for real-time and multimedia applications, such as VoIP (Voice over IP) and VoD (Video on Demand). In this paper, we propose a QoS multi-tree based routing protocol for wireless mesh environments, named Inter-Mesh Infrastructure Proactive Routing (IMPR). It is a proactive multi-tree routing protocol enabling QoS guarantee for communications from/towards the Internet network through the Mesh Gateway (MG) of the mesh infrastructure. We describe and analyze the simulation results of different scenarios conducted on t…
Hybrid QoS Based Routing for IEEE 802.16j Mesh Infrastructure
Acceptance rate: 29%; International audience; With the growth of wireless networks, Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) has appeared as an emerging key solution for broadband Internet access with a low-cost deployment. Moreover, providing QoS guarantees for real-time and streaming applications such as VoIP (Voice over IP) and VoD (Video on Demand) is a challenging issue in such environment. In this paper, we propose a hybrid wireless mesh architecture to provide mesh clients with Internet access while guaranteeing QoS. It is formed by an IEEE 802.16j based infrastructure and several IEEE 802.11s based client domains. A lustering algorithm is developed to enhance scalability issues within the mesh i…

QoS Based Routing Protocol for Intra-Mesh Infrastructure Communications
International audience; Mesh Networks (WMNs) have been considered as a promising alternative to conventional wired networks, thanks to its flexibility and easy deployment. Thus, to ensure a satisfying level of QoS guarantees for real-time and streaming applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and Video on Demand (VoD), we propose a novel QoS based routing protocol for wireless mesh environments, called Hybrid QoS Mesh Routing (HQMR), jointly with a clustering algorithm to enhance scalability issues within the mesh infrastructure. HQMR is composed of two routing sub-protocols: a reactive routing sub-protocol for intra-infrastructure communications and a proactive QoS based multi-tree routin…
