Loop Detection in MPLS for Wireless Sensor Networks

Tags:
switching

Overview Very few technologies illustrate the fast rate of technological innovations more than wireless sensor networks. Sensor networks offer a virtual path capability to carry differentiated services efficiently across the wireless backbone. This paper provides a new efficient strategy for loop detection in Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) for wireless networks - MPLS is a novel wireless networking topology that can be used to provide differentiated service, traffic engineering and quality of service in wireless networks.
