Abstract :
The proliferation of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) facilitates the development of multihop routing protocols. Moreover, the need to cover greater areas has led to the creation of new standards for Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (WMANs). This paper proposes a new routing protocol that integrates WLANs and WMANs, allowing seamless interconnectivity.
