Abstract

Mesh topology is optionally supported in the broadband wireless access (BWA) networks standardized by IEEE 802.16 and is now studied by IEEE 802.15 wireless personal network (WPAN) and IEEE 802.16e mobile BWA (MBWA). This paper presents our research results about how to networking in the IEEE mesh wireless network and make decisions of route which take advantages of information supplied by the network´s lower layer as possible. Moreover, a routing protocol for mesh wireless network is designed. Simulation results and analyses of the protocol performances, including end to end delay performance and throughput, are also given in this paper.
