Abstract

Despite the increasing interest in wireless mesh networking, it is still unclear how well these systems will scale with increasing user density. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to position mesh network performance within the context of the importance of the mesh-to-access link rate ratio and the number of radios per mesh node when operating the mesh under relatively high traffic loads.
