High-Throughput Multicast Routing Metrics in Wireless Mesh Networks
The stationary nature of nodes in a mesh network has shifted the main design goal of routing protocols from maintaining connectivity between source and destination nodes to finding high-throughput paths between them. Lately, numerous link-quality based routing metrics have been proposed for choosing high-throughput paths for unicast protocols. This paper...
