Abstract

A strategic placement of mesh points (MPs) in a Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is essential to maximize the throughput of the network. In this paper, we address the problem of MPs placement for throughput optimization in WMN with consideration of routing protocols. Specifically, we formulate the routing paths among the MPs and mesh routers (MRs), calculate the aggregated traffic at the MPs, and suggest the optimal positions for the MPs. Our study also compares the optimal performance of routing protocols by finding their corresponding optimal placements of MPs first. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
