| Abstract(in English) | As a scalable, inexpensive Internet-access network, we have studied the wireless Internet-access mesh network (WIMNET) that is composed of multiple access points (APs) connected by wireless links. WIMNET can improve the dependability to failures of links and APs by allocating APs redundantly. However, redundant APs may cause the increase of the operational cost and the degradation of the communication performance due to increasing radio wave interferences. In this paper, we formulate the active AP selection problem for selecting functioning APs for communications, and propose its algorithm. After finding the communication path using all the APs, our algorithm seeks the minimization of active APs by repeating the removal of one active AP and the check of the path existence. Through simulations using the WIMNET simulator, we show that our algorithm can reduce the number of active APs and there exists the best number of active APs in terms of the throughput. |
