Experimental Characterization of Interference in a 802.11g Wireless Mesh Network
Overview Multi-channel wireless networks are being studied as a means to increase wireless network capacity. The implicit assumption is that network throughput increases in direct proportion with the number of non-overlapping channels used. But there have been very few studies which have experimentally verified this premise. This paper characterizes the performance of multi-channel wireless networks consisting of IEEE 802.11g devices. This paper conducts the experiments on a sample topology consisting of just two flows on non-overlapping channels. The authors expected the combined throughput of the two flows to double.
