Abstract

Moving on from the first generation of Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), where community and city-wide type mesh networks [1] are deployed to provide best-effort network access, the next generation WMNs is about extending its capability to allow Quality of Service (QoS) at carrier grade level, enabling real-time and multimedia applications to be offered to users of the network. Whilst technologies exist to support QoS, they provide no real answer to offering QoS network-wide across WMNs. In this paper, a QoS provisioning framework is therefore proposed that provides a combination of resource provisioning and routing for WMN.
