SrcRR: A High Throughput Routing Protocol for 802.11 Mesh Networks

Overview This paper addresses a set of serious performance problems observed on the CityMesh 50-node 802.11b urban rooftop network that existing routing protocols do not consider. The original CityMesh routing protocol, based on DSR and ETX, delivered median TCP throughput of 20 kilobytes per second, despite the use of radios that could drive most individual links at much higher rates. The paper describes SrcRR, a new routing protocol that includes solutions to these problems. The paper presents an experimental evaluation of SrcRR on CityMesh. SrcRR improves the median bulk TCP throughput between pairs of nodes from 20 KB/s to 110 KB/s.
