Achieving throughput fairness in Wireless Mesh Networks based on IEEE 802.11

Abstract

We propose a fair bandwidth allocation scheme for multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks (WMNs) using distributed algorithm. Through an extensive simulation, we show that our scheme ensures per node fairness without loss of the total aggregate throughput.
