项目摘要

The wireless mesh network technology has recently emerged as a promising solution to building large-scale wireless Internet with quick and easy deployment. It has numerous applications, such as broadband Internet access, building automation, and intelligent transportation systems. The indispensable technology enabling large-area roaming in wireless mesh networks is mobility management. Mobility management has been extensively studied in infrastructure-based single-hop wireless access networks. However, Internet-based hybrid wireless mesh networks involve multihop wireless access from users to the Internet. In such an environment, routing and wireless channel access over multihop wireless links can produce detrimental effects on the performance of mobility management in wireless mesh networks. This research develops scalable and cost-effective mobility management mechanisms for Internet-based hybrid wireless mesh networks. It emphasizes the integrated design of mobility management with efficient medium access control and wireless multihop routing, which was not considered in traditional mobility management design. This research will provide innovative techniques to numerous applications of the wireless mesh network technology. It also provides an excellent opportunity for graduate and undergraduate research students.

无线网状网络技术最近已成为一种有前途的解决方案，可以快速、轻松地部署来构建大规模无线互联网。它有许多应用，例如宽带互联网接入、楼宇自动化和智能交通系统。在无线网状网络中实现大面积漫游不可或缺的技术是移动性管理。移动管理在基于基础设施的单跳无线接入网络中得到了广泛的研究。然而，基于互联网的混合无线网状网络涉及从用户到互联网的多跳无线接入。在这种环境中，多跳无线链路上的路由和无线信道访问会对无线网状网络中的移动性管理的性能产生不利影响。这项研究为基于互联网的混合无线网状网络开发了可扩展且经济高效的移动管理机制。它强调移动性管理与高效媒体访问控制和无线多跳路由的集成设计，这是传统移动性管理设计中没有考虑到的。这项研究将为无线网状网络技术的众多应用提供创新技术。它还为研究生和本科生提供了绝佳的机会。
