Summary:
The idea of building a wireless mesh network, which aggregates the capacity from both user access lines and telecom providers links, is still far from reality, largely due to the lack of advanced resource management procedures and generalized node’s mobility support. CARMNET - a Swiss-Polish project - aims at investigating delay-aware resource management for wireless multi-hop networks, providing also node mobility support. The project focuses on solutions that will motivate telecom providers to reconsider their view on user-operated wireless mesh networks. In this paper, we present the initial architecture design of a utility-oriented resource and mobility management framework that will be used in CARMNET-like networks. The framework is based on a delay-aware flow control mechanism and a solution for providing seamless Internet roaming.
