Connection Management Over an Ethernet Based Wireless Mesh Network
Overview This paper discusses the Wireless Mesh Network developed in the scope of the IBBT Wireless Building Automation project. This WMN is designed as a high datarate wireless backbone interconnection between the other wireless networks used in the WBA architecture. This paper demonstrates that switched Ethernet is a technology that, with minimal effort, can be used as a base for WMNs. The paper also talks about the distributed optimizations that were implemented and combined to boost network performance. The paper introduces the novel concept of Connection Management, introducing network engineering techniques in the Wireless Mesh domain for the first time.
