Design and Implementation of Wireless Mesh Network Testbed SJTU-MESH

The emerging Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) is a broadband access technology with the properties of multi-hop and self-organization, which has advantages of easy deployment, self-recovering, low cost and high scalability. The paper firstly introduces related works of wireless mesh networks; then describes the deployment of a real indoor testbed SJTU-MESH architecture and click based implementation including hardware platform, software platform and system integration; and then presents real testbed performance evaluation and analysis, finally it gives conclusions and future remarks.
