Wireless network management system for WiMAX / Wi-Fi mesh networks

Abstract

The development of integrating several wireless network technology make wireless network devices built everywhere. In 1999, IEEE proposes WiMAX broadband wireless technology which has high transmission bandwidth and wide coverage. There are more and more researches as above-mentioned wireless technology to increase Mesh network technology which can easily increase network coverage. Intel[1] point out that integrated WiMAX/ Wi-Fi Mesh network is the best solution currently. The SS of WiMAX will the bottleneck of network traffic in WiMAX/ Wi-Fi Mesh hierarchy architecture, thus we need to manage the bandwidth between WiMAX and Wi-Fi, and support Mesh network topology development. © IFIP International Federation for Information Processing 2007.
