Wireless mesh network (WMN) is a widely accepted network topology due to its implementation convenience, low cost nature, and immense adaptability in real-time scenarios. The components of the network are gateways, mesh routers, access points, and end users. The components in mesh topology have a dedicated line of communication with a half-duplex radio. The wireless mesh network is basically implemented in IEEE 802.11 standard, and it is typically ad-hoc in nature. The advantageous nature of WMN leads to its extensive use in today's world. WMN's overall performance has been increased by incorporating the concept of multi-channel multi-radio. This gives rise to the problem of channel assignment for maximum utilization of the available bandwidth. In this chapter, the factors affecting the channel assignment process have been presented. Categorizations of the channel assignment techniques are also illustrated. Channel assignment techniques have also been compared.
