Extension of Basic Service Set by Multihop Routing in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard

Overview In this paper, a multihop routing extension to IEEE 802.11 is presented. Multihop extension preserves the traditional single-hop networks where the service infrastructure is constructed by many access points but it also adds the flexibility of ad hoc networks where wireless transfer through mobile stations is allowed in multiple hop. Multihop extension can reduce the number of required access points and improve the throughput performance. Protocol presented is in compatible with the DCF and PCF medium access methods of IEEE 802.11 standard.
