摘要:Wireless Mesh Networks have achieved popularity in the recent years due to their last mile Internetaccess, low deployment cost and self-configuring features. Routing is a recent research topic in the WMN to providereliable and efficient route in the network. Routing protocols play a major role in finding out the route between sourceand destination. The existing routing protocols find the route based on the minimum hop count for the transmission.However, this default route construction process is not assured that will always lead to quick and successful delivery ofpackets to the destination. Sometimes the node failure, congestion, link breakage and inefficient utilization ofbandwidth may be occurred. The above difficulties may be overcome by constructing a route based on quality metricssuch as energy, queue length, link quality, bandwidth, etc. This paper discusses the energy based and queue basedrouting algorithms and protocols which have been proposed by various researchers in the area of WMN.
