Comparative study on different interference aware routing metrics in WMN: A survey

Abstract

Wireless Mesh network plays a significant role in enhancement of various techniques in wireless communication. The primary goal of wireless mesh networking is to achieve high system throughput. As the topology of the network is unpredictable in a wireless medium due to its mobile nature and hence the routing with high throughput becomes more difficult. Interference is the major cause for performance degradation of any wireless network. In this paper, we provide an comparative study based on the unique features of different interference aware routing metrics and a survey about how interference level is estimated using those metrics.
