“…However protocols must explicitly ensure that such recovery is possible. [17,16,21,4] allow intermediate nodes to switch transmission to an alternate path on detection of route failures, while [13,5] inform the source node of failures, which then has to choose an alternate route, which slows the process of recovery. It has been shown that none of the protocols provide a holistic solution taking into account all these factors.…”

There have been many advances in the area of routing in wireless mesh networks and a multitude of routing algorithms have been proposed. In the recent past, a class of routing protocols called multipath routing has gained favour amongst researchers. As opposed to uni path routing where one single path is used to send data from a source to a destination, in multipath routing, multiple paths are used to route data. The idea of using multiple paths to deliver data lends itself well to a wireless multihop network, given its broadcast nature and high connectivity and can offer significant advantages over traditional single path routing -increased reliability, ability to load balance data flows which improves network performance, allows quick recovery from route failures and throughput aggregation. This paper provides brief overviews of the protocols that employ this method and identifies the challenges involved in such a routing strategy.

Finally, the DRS uses format presented in [14] to establish and maintain primary path and alternative path, such as routing table, RREQ table, RREQ packet format, and RREP packet format.…”

Finally, the DRS uses format presented in [14] to establish and maintain primary path and alternative path, such as routing table, RREQ table, RREQ packet format, and RREP packet format. However, there are usually three types of the multipath routing, including: link-joint, node-joint, and node-disjoint.…”

In this paper, we propose a Dynamic routing Scheme (DRS) to improve TCP connection throughput on wireless mesh networks (WMN). At first, a RTT-based congestion detection module is developed to identify congestion occurrence by RTT measurement. Then a path-discovery module is developed to establish and maintain an alternative path to deliver the data packet, instead of the congested primary path. Finally, the source will route data packets to the alternative path seamlessly. A series of simulations is conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed DRS in cases of various traffic interferences. Besides, the impact of the path-switching on throughput is also explored. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed DRS, in average, enhances TCP connection throughput by 65.75% relative to the connections with traditional static routing, even in the condition of heavy background traffic.
