A novel queue length aware distributed link scheduler for multi-transmit receive Wireless Mesh Networks

Abstract

Next generation Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) will require a link scheduler that exploits the full advantage of Multi-Transmit-Receive (MTR) commuication. To this end, we design a distributed link scheduler called Voting-ALGO that is aware of queue lengths and uses the celebrated max weight policy to achieve 100% throughput.
