In this 21st century era, people tend to find another space for improving everything, including technology. This includes the possibility of reaching out more using routers and gadgets. Even businesses and mode of transportation involves a high demand on using a WMN or Wireless Mesh Network. WMN which is commonly known as one of the primary technology nowadays. This also helps in terms of understanding the network connectivity at any time, at a low cost. In Wireless Mesh Network, there are two kinds of a technique used, the Mesh Nodes and Mesh Clients. This two are known to be the backbone, the bridge, the way of reaching out for connectivity. One key challenge in adopting wireless mesh networking is the capacity of effective throughout that can be offered to the clients. Due to the broadcast nature of the wireless medium, signals transmitted from different devices over the same channel will result in a probable connection loss. Despite the probability of problems that may occur, the WMN is starting to grow its volume into a larger scale of communication. This book is a significant platform to discuss its future competencies and proficiencies in the communication of a greater ecosystem using Wireless Mesh Network.

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) will dominate in the coming decade as they are one of the primary technologies. They will assist in understanding the awaited dream of network connectivity anywhere, at any time, at a low cost. As a result, in the next-generation Internet, they will play a significant part. Their ability to self-organize greatly minimizes the complexity of network implementation and maintenance, necessitating a low initial investment.

Simple mesh clients and mesh routers make up these networks, which make the backbone of WMNs. Mesh routers have limited mobility. They connect mesh and traditional clients to the network. The bridge functionalities and the gateway in mesh routers can be used to connect WMNs to other networks like the cellular, Internet, IEEE 802.16, IEEE 802.15, IEEE 802.11, sensor networks, etc. Mesh clients can be mobile or motionless, and they can establish a client mesh network with mesh routers and other mesh clients. Wireless personal area networks (WPANs), wireless metropolitan area networks (MAN), Ad hoc networks, and wireless local area networks (WLANs) are expected to benefit from WMNs, which are expected to overcome restrictions and considerably increase performance. These networks provide wireless services to various applications in metropolitan locations, local, campus, and personal.

Wireless networks have advanced at a breakneck pace, inspiring a slew of new deployments. Around the world, research has increased, and numerous companies have already released products to the market, while others have begun to implement these networks in several application situations. Despite recent developments in wireless mesh networking, there are still several research difficulties to overcome. Worldwide, research is being carried out at a breakneck pace, with many articles already published in the literature, and the race to enhance this technology is continuing.

The book goes through each mesh layer’s functionality, as well as existing algorithms and protocols.
