BUFFER BASED ROUTING MECHANISM FOR LOAD BALANCING IN WIRELESS MESH NETWORKS

Abstract

In recent years it is witnessed that the Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are becoming the most promising technology as they offer low cost broadband wireless connectivity, larger coverage area, high flexibility and easy deployment. WMNs are an extension of existing wireless networks. WMN is an emerging technology; however, there are certain challenges that still exist in the network such as scalability, load balancing, mobility, power management etc. Here we have proposed a novel routing protocol which considers buffer occupancy of intermediate nodes for route selection. Simulation results convey that the proposed protocol outstandingly enhances the performance of the network by balancing the traffic load among less congested nodes compared to the standard protocol
