High Performance AODV Routing Protocol for Hybrid Wireless Mesh Networks
– Hybrid Wireless Mesh Networks are wireless multi-hop networks consisting of two types of nodes, Mesh Routers and Mesh Clients. Mesh Routers are more static and less resource constrained than mobile Mesh Clients, and form the wireless backhaul of the network. Routing in Hybrid Wireless Mesh networks, where both types of nodes participate in the routing and forwarding of packets, is a challenging task. In this paper, we present extensions to the Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol with the aim to exploit the heterogeneity of Hybrid Wireless Mesh Networks. As demonstrated via extensive simulations, our extensions achieve a more than 100% improvement over standard AODV in terms of key performance metrics such as packet loss, goodput and delay.
