A measurement study of a commercial-grade urban wifi mesh

Abstract: We present a measurement study of a large-scale urban WiFi mesh network consisting of more than 250 Mesh Access Points (MAPs), with paying customers that use it for Internet access. Our study, involved collecting multi-modal data, e.g., through continuous gathering of SNMP logs, syslogs, passive traffic capture, and limited active measurements in different parts of the city. Our study is split into four components -planning and deployment of the mesh, success of mesh routing techniques, likely experience of us… Show more

“…For example, the MadMesh network [23] reported a measurement study of such a network deployment and its planning. This deployment is a two-tier architecture and operates in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, while guifi.net has a multi-tier architecture and uses several network technologies.…”

“…Therefore, designing the optimal TTG trajectories is equal to covering as much traffic as possible into D. Some wireless network measurement studies [1,2,5,6] provide the traffic distribution function f (u, v, t). In this model, we suppose that f (u, v, t) is known as the input.…”
