A survey of mobility management in wireless mesh networks

摘要

Wireless mesh networking (WMN) has received unprecedented attention from the research community due to its cost effectiveness for providing high bandwidth internet access. For realizing large scale wireless mesh network with seamless communication, mobility management is a vital issue. Although remarkable contribution has been made on mobility management in WMNs, it needs more attention for improvement of real time communication. In this article, an investigation on IP-based mobility management schemes in WMNs is conducted. By analyzing the existing and current research works on mobility management in WMNs, this paper proposes the open challenges at the end.
