This chapter presents IEEE 802.11s, an emerging standard for wireless mesh net- works (WMNs). IEEE 802.11s proposes multihop forwarding at the MAC level, which is a new approach for building WMNs. Traditional solutions for WMNs use network-level routing protocols to allow multihop forwarding among wireless mesh nodes. IEEE 802.11s species multihop...

This paper proposes a Bearing Opportunistic Network (BON) coding procedure that operates in wireless multihop networks over multiple unicast sessions and it introduces very low overhead to the network. The BON coding is used to increase network performance in terms of a higher throughput and a lower delay. It can be seen as an independent layer in...
The performance of wireless mesh networks is severely limited by the interfering nature of wireless transmissions. In an 802.11 network, collisions can be aggravated by the hidden terminal problem. In order to solve the hidden terminal problem, virtual carrier sensing using RTS/CTS has been proposed as a solution. However, this mechanism potentiall...
Opportunistic routing achieves significant performance gain under lossy wireless links. In this paper, we develop a novel approach that exploits inter-flow network coding in oppor-tunistic routing. A unique feature of our design is that it systematically optimizes end-to-end performance (e.g., total throughput). A key challenge to achieve this goal...
Wireless mesh networks are capable of facilitating wireless local area network coverage, Internet broadband access and network connectivity for stationary or mobile hosts for both network operators and customers at low costs. The strengths and weakness of metrics used in routing protocols are reflected directly in WMN's characteristics. Metrics ass...
Maritime wireless mesh networks (MWMNs) are conceived to provide network connectivity for maritime users and enable them to communicate with correspondent users connected to terrestrial communication networks. The high cost and low data-rate of satellite and other legacy maritime communication technologies and systems deployed in MWMNs pose major l...
