Abstract
To become independent of backbone networks leading to cheap deployments, the traditional single-hop approach needs to be replaced by Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). Wireless Mesh Networks is cost-effective alternative to wireless local area networks. Due to multi hop networking, WMN requires multi hop routing protocol. Mostly the nature of data is from client to gateway and vice versa. So, according to IEEE 802.11s Draft 3.0, HWMP routing protocol is adopted. In this paper, we analyzed the throughput of HWMP protocol with increase in number of nodes and increase in size of packets using simulation model.
