What you need to know about one of the hottest and most promising technologies in wireless communications

Owing to their ability to easily interconnect a wide range of devices, wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are attracting immense interest throughout the world. This book offers a clear, practical introduction to this rapidly growing field, providing engineers with the tools they need to start working on WiFi, WiMAX, or LTE multi-hop relay networks.

The authors explain all technical concepts with a minimum of mathematics, incorporating numerous examples of user scenarios, deployable architectures, performance tips, and real-world implementations using readily available tools. The evolution of WMNs from IEEE wireless LAN to 4G radio technologies, various business aspects, and future directions are also explored. Coverage includes:

• Architectural requirements for multi-hop and ad-hoc networking, with topics ranging from anonymity to searching
• Key application areas in transportation, medicine, environmental protection, smart buildings, and more
• A review of the application of mesh concepts to IEEE 802.11 WiFi wireless LAN technology
• Mesh networking using IEEE 802.16 WiMAX radio access networks?presented here for the first time
• Mesh and relay networking in LTE and LTE-Advanced technologies, including system architecture and design issues

WiFi, WiMAX, and LTE Multi-hop Mesh Networks is the ideal guide for engineers and researchers wishing to quickly get up to speed on the latest advances in mesh networking.
