Routing method for gateway load balancing in wireless mesh networks

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Wireless mesh networks have been attracting many users in recent years. By connecting base stations
(mesh nodes) with each other via wireless connections, they can achieve a wide-area wireless environment with
flexible-configuration and low-cost properties. When we utilize the wireless mesh networks as an infrastructure for
Internet access, all network traffic from mobile nodes go through a gateway node which is directly connected to the wired network. Therefore, we need to distribute the traffic load by deploying multiple gateway nodes and each mesh node should select a gateway node to access the Internet according to its traffic load, processing power, and access link capacity. In this paper, we propose a routing method that equalizes the traffic load on the gateway nodes. Through simulation experiments, we show that the proposed method can uniformly distribute the traffic load on gateway nodes, keeping the time complexity and suppressing an increase in the path length at most 15% compared to the conventional shortest path routing.
