Wireless Mesh Networking technology for commercial and industrial customers

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have been receiving a great deal of attention as a broadband access alternative for a wide range of markets, including those in the metro, public-safety, energy, education, enterprise, carrier-access and residential sectors. Understanding the strengths and weaknesses of single, dual, and multi-radio mesh options is the first step. In this paper simulation results for three distinct generations of wireless mesh configuration is presented. The paper also address some of the technical influences of WMNs and in particular focus on the opportunities that wireless mesh technologies provide for implementing more efficient processes and smarter working for commercial and industrial customers.
