Smart Routing with Segmental Routing Mechanism for Wireless Mesh Network (WMN)

The wireless mesh networks (WMN) are the growing mediums of connectivity for the purpose of internet or intranet connectivity. The routing among the WMN becomes a challenging task with the rise in the number of nodes across the network and the larger data volumes. In this paper, the work has been carried out on the growing WMNs with the dynamic number of nodes. The node availability aware neighbor formation and status tracking mechanism has been applied in this scheme in order to keep the network updated about the working nodes and to eliminate the non-functional nodes from the connected mesh network. The neighbor query process is utilized for the path building towards the base stations (BTS) or Sink node in the given WMN networks. Additionally; the routing information is collected from all of the neighboring nodes towards the destination paths using the desired mechanism for the path discovery under the segmental routing mechanism for WMN, which has been created with the capability of handling the network path failures dynamically in the local domain of the given network zone. The performance of the proposed model has been analyzed in the form of energy consumption, end-to-end delay and detailed energy & packet based analysis
