- Investigating Depth-Fanout Trade-O in WiMAX Mesh Networks
- Wireless Mesh Networks WMNs have been an emerging technology for providing cost/effective broadband Internet access. The research done insofar usually assumes that the wireless backbone of a WMN is built using IEEE 802.11 technologies. Such an approach has the drawback of leading to dense and sub-optimal deployments, due to the...

- Assessment of Urban-Scale Wireless Networks With a Small Number of Measurements
- In order to evaluate, improve, or expand a deployed, citywide wireless mesh network, it is necessary to assess the network's spatial performance. This paper presents a general framework to accurately predict a network's well-served area, termed the metric region, via a small number of measurements. Assessment of deployed networks must...

- TDMA Scheduling in Long-Distance WiFi Networks
- In the last few years, long-distance WiFi networks have been used to provide Internet connectivity in rural areas. The strong requirement to support real-time applications in these settings leads one to consider TDMA link scheduling. Such scheduling takes on a different flavour in long-distance mesh networks due to the unique...

- 2nd-generation Intel Classmates reviewed
- I just love these little laptops, so here's another repost while I've "gone fishin'". Intel recently sent me two examples of their second-generation Classmate PC for testing. The Classmates include numerous improvements on their already well-thought-out first-gen machines and mark the first versions that we can...

- A Load-Aware Routing Metric for Wireless Mesh Networks
- Routing metrics play a critical role in Wireless Mesh Networks WMNs. Several metrics have already been proposed but none of them can effectively capture both local traffic load and hidden node issues. This paper proposes a load and interference-aware routing metric for wireless mesh networks, named Contention Window Based CWB...
