Abstract

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have many features such as low up-front costs and easy maintenance, and they are becoming an important networking infrastructure. However, WMNs have some problems such as node placement, security, transmission power and so on. To solve these problems, we have implemented a hybrid simulation system based on PSO and HC called WMN-PSOHC. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of WMNs by using WMN-PSOHC considering different number of mesh routers and Chi-square distribution of mesh clients. Simulation results show that 32 mesh routers are enough for covering all mesh clients in the considered scenario.
