An Inter-Domain Routing Protocol for Multi-Homed Wireless Mesh Networks
Category: Software and Web Development, Networking and Communications
Tags: ip
Overview This paper presents a routing protocol for multi-homed wireless mesh networks that provide uninterrupted connectivity and fast handoff. The authors approach integrates wireless and wired connectivity, using multicast groups to coordinate decisions and seamlessly transfer connections between several Internet gateways as mobile clients move between access points. The protocol optimizes the use of the wireless medium by short-cutting wireless hops through wired connections, paying a very low overhead during handoffs. The paper demonstrates that inter-domain handoffs occur instantaneously, with virtually no loss or delay, for both TCP and UDP connections.
