“…Moreover, among the most familiar WMN routing protocols, BATMAN-advanced [28] is selected as the utilized routing scheme in this work to construct a multi-radio multichannel topology. There are several publications about the high efficiency and performance of this protocol in various testbed experiments that can be considered as a good reason for choosing this protocol [6,26,27,32,35,41]. Although in the arranged topology it was possible to use the static routes instead of using any routing protocol, presented features by BATMAN-advanced facilitates the construction of offered system for applying new rate control policies and alleviation of fairness issues.…”

To this date, although a rich surge of research studies have been conducted on Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), still impartial distribution of network resources is one of the open issues in this area. In WMNs, stations that are more hops away from the gateway nodes generally suffer from higher throughput degradation and delay. One of the key reasons for the occurrence of such an incident is the existing limitations in MAC layers of wireless technologies. In this paper, a thorough solution based on an adaptive rate allocation mechanism is proposed to alleviate the fairness issues of WMNs. It is important to note that the presented solution is independent from MAC and underlying layers. This property differentiates it from many other related works on addressing fairness problems in WMNs. Furthermore, the ability of traffic control over UDP and TCP streams, supporting multi-radio mesh routers and restriction of internal greedy traffic within WMNs can be regarded as the main advantages of the offered solution in comparison to the earlier related works. For assessment and evaluation of the proposed scheme, several experiments have been carried out through real testbed environment. The consistency of the represented results substantiates the efficiency of the proposed mechanism in terms of addressing starvation issues and fairness provisioning for end-users of WMNs.

“…The results show that batman-adv is more stable than 802.11s, but in contrast, the recovery time of 802.11s is faster. On the other hand, Wang et al [4] compared the routing protocol of 802.11s (HWMP Hybrid Wireless Mesh Protocol) against two well known ad hoc routing protocols (OLSR and B.A.T.M.A.N.). Their study determined the maximum average bandwidth and evaluated the protocol's efficiency.…”

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are next generation networks that have emerged as a promising technology capable of providing broadband connectivity at low cost, and offers advantages in scenarios where cabling is too expensive or prohibitive. Rural communities are a good example of these kind of scenarios. Deployment of WMNs in rural communities can be done with a low budget, and expansion of the network can be done as the community grows. In this paper we evaluate the performance of a small scale wireless mesh network, comparing two well known routing protocols for WMNs, B.A.T.M.A.N. Advanced and the 802.11s standard, against an OpenFlow controller. Then, by deploying a testbed we verify their bandwidth, datagram loss and jitter. Finally, our results show that both routing protocols have advantages and disadvantages. Besides, the OpenFlow approach shows an acceptable performance compared to the routing protocols; however, some adjustments are needed to optimize the performance of OpenFlow in WMNs. Our contribution in this paper is the characterization of the multimedia service capacity of wireless mesh networks for rural communities.

“…In addition to the default routing protocol HWMP in the 802.11s, mesh network may support other protocols like Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR), BATMAN, Wireless Distribution System (WDS), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and BABEL. BATMAN proved better performances than HWMP and OLSR [21], thus, we decided to make experimentations by using BATMAN.…”

In this paper, the problem of multi-UAVs (Unmanned Arial Vehicles) Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is considered by using a new framework for pose and map estimation using monocular vision and reduced communications capabilities. The problem of localization and mapping is solved by fusing monocular visual data with odometry measurements through Graph SLAM formulation. Using each robot's map data representation, a proposal is made for a good and robust communication between UAVs to perform efficient data exchange while keeping SLAM performances. A mesh network is chosen to import solutions to wireless networking. Finally, some validation experiments are performed in an Ad Hoc Network and a Wireless Mesh Network using Better Approach To Mobile Ad Hoc Network (BATMAN) protocol.
