Abstract :
In this paper we investigate the power control problem associated with a special class of Wireless Mesh Networks, known as the Wireless Lattice Networks. These networks function mainly as backbone networks. A natural question for a network in such a class is to determine its maximum flow for a given an end-to-end traffic distribution. For a given set of self-interfering links, known as a web, the maximum flow is shown to be the solution of a nonlinear matrix equation. The maximum flow of the network can then be determined from the maximum flows of the webs it contains.
