Wireless Mesh Networks for Iot and Smart Cities: Technologies and Applications

A wireless mesh network (WMN) is a wireless communication network with radio capabilities organized in a mesh topology which can self-form and self-heal. These networks work with different wireless technologies and are not restricted to a specific technology or communication protocol. WMNs therefore offer attractive communication solutions for difficult environments such as emergency situations, battlefield surveillance, field operations, disaster recovery, tunnels, oil rigs, high-speed mobile-video applications onboard public transport, VoIP, self-organizing internet access for communities, smart meters, and events.

This edited book covers state-of-the-art research on WMNs including BLL-based mesh networks, body sensor networks, seamless IoT mobile sensing through Wi-Fi mesh networking, software defined radio for wireless mesh networks, UAV-to-ground multi-hop communication using backpressure and FlashLinQ-based algorithms, unmanned aerial vehicle relay networks, multimedia content delivery in wireless mesh networking, adaptive fuzzy agents in big data and multi-sensor environments and AI-aided resource sharing for WMNs.
