Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) As a scalable inexpensive Internet-access network, we have studied the Wireless Internet-access Mesh Network (WIMNET) that is composed of multiple access point (APs) connected through the Wireless Distribution System (WDS). Because all the traffics pass through an Internet gateway (GW) in WIMNET, the resolution of link congestions around the GW is very important. For this problem, we have proposed a WDS clustering algorithm to partition the APs into a set of WDS clusters where the APs in each cluster shares an GW, and have considered the adoption of a smart antenna for a Smart AP (SAP). Since the smart antenna is usually expensive, we have extended the WDS clustering algorithm to a cluster where only one or two SAPs are used. In this paper, we generalize this extension to a cluster with an arbitrary number of SAPs. Besides, we investigate the priority action of the smart antenna for multiple SAPs in one cluster. We evaluate the effectiveness through simulations using grid topology instances.
