  • Abstract
    On of the key advantages of Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) is their importance for providing cost efficient broadband connectivity. There are issues for achieving the network connectivity and user coverage, which are related with the node placement problem. Considering the router node placement problem in WMNs, it is important to find the optimal distribution of router nodes in order to provide the best network connectivity and provide the best coverage in a set of uniformly distributed clients. In this work, we compare the performance of WMN-SA system for four different distribution of mesh clients. From simulation results, we found that, in our scenarios the best performance is achieved for Weibull Distribution. whereas, the worst performance is for Uniform Distribution.
