Service Capability

With the number of applications increased in wireless mesh networks (WMNs), insufficient service capability is becoming a main obstacle. Meanwhile, cloud computing is an effective approach for organizing computing resource which can improve service capability remarkably. In this paper, framework of WMNs with cloud computing is proposed. Service capability of WMNs with cloud computing is judged and scored from 6 dimensions to make a composite comparison, which is shown cloud computing will be a promising approach for improving service capability in WMNs.

Qos Performance

Motivated by the advantage of the gateway that acts as the performance bottleneck in wireless mesh networks (WMNs) while shaping the traffic with the greedy fractal shaper, a novel approach is proposed to derive the upper stochastic/statistical bound of the backlog, delay and delay jitter of the WMNs gateway quality of service (QoS) statistic bound model. By analyzing and evaluating the QoS performance of the present model based on network calculus theory with fair bandwidth distributed strategy, a number of useful curves are achieved. Simulation shows the performance of the present model.
