摘要:The CSMA/CA based random channel access mechanisms in Wireless Mesh Networks(WMNs), IEEE 802.11 DCF and EDCA, are inefficient to eliminate effectively hidden terminal and exposed terminal problems in multi-hop scenarios. In this paper, we propose efficient channel assignment and routing protocols for multi-radio multi-channel (MRMC) wireless mesh networks. These set of protocols are based on Latin squares and have MRMC communication capabilities i.e., the multiple access scheduling in multi-radio multi-channel mesh networking. A novel efficient channel assignment and routing scheme is also developed taking into account the interference constraints, the number of channels in the network and the number of radios available at each mesh router for multiradio multi-channel wireless mesh networks. MRMC communication using the two types of channel assignment schemes and routing methods is compared
