Abstract(in English) In recent years, ``Smart Factory,'' that introduced the IoT/M2M system to the factory has attracted a lot of attention. ``Smart'' means one that can efficiently manage and operate facilities in the factory by constructing a self-employed network in the factory. However, regarding the realization of a smart factory, there are various technical problems at present. In particular, flow allocation problem is one of the most important problems in case of constructing self-employed networks with wireless mesh networks. In this research, we focus on this problem, gradually increase the traffic volume of each flow, calculate the traffic volume when the throughput starts to saturate, taking the Link Interference into account. We propose a method that allocates the calculated traffic volume as a flow so that each flow satisfies Max-min Fairness . In the simulation evaluation, the proposed method is evaluated in terms of the minimum throughput and fairness. As a result, it was found that throughput was sufficiently achieved for the flow allocated by the proposed method, and that fairness of communication decreases when increasing traffic volume.
