Abstract :
Wireless protocols, for IEEE802.11a, provide multiple none-overlapping channels. In this paper, we present an integrated metric routing protocol for multi-channel network, called IMR. The metric of this protocol composes the channel status and node status. Simulation results show that this protocol improves network average throughput and decrease end to end delay efficiently.
