Providing survivability against jamming attack for multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks
Built upon a shared wireless medium, wireless mesh network is particularly vulnerable to jamming attacks. The ability to recover from attacks and maintain an acceptable level of service degradation is a crucial aspect in the design of a wireless mesh network. To address this issue, this paper investigates the network restoration solutions via the joint design of traffic rerouting, channel re-assignment, and scheduling over a multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh network. Efficient routing and channel assignment schemes can relieve the interference caused by both the normal network nodes and the jamming nodes. Therefore, based on the necessary conditions of schedulability, we first formulate the optimal network restoration problem as linear programming problem, which gives an upper bound on the achievable network throughput. After we solve the LP problems, we have a set of flows assigned to edges that have been assigned to different channels. And based on the LP solutions, we prov...
