Autonomous Network Reconfiguration System with CA-AOMDV in Wireless Mesh Networks

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have emerged as a key technology for next-generation wireless networking. Because of their advantages over other wireless networks, WMNs are undergoing rapid progress and inspiring numerous applications. WMN is a promising wireless technology for numerous applications e.g., broadband home networking, community and neighbourhood networks, enterprise networking, building automation, etc. It is gaining significant attention as a possible way for cash strapped Internet service providers (ISPs), carriers, and others to roll out robust and reliable wireless broadband service access in a way that needs minimal up-front investments. Also there occurs some link failures which degrade the performance of the WMNs. In this paper, we have made use of Autonomous Network Reconfiguration System(ARS) and to route the packets we have used Channel Aware Ad-hoc On-Demand Multipath Distance Vector (CA-AOMDV) for route selection. Through our experimental results, it is known that the ARS along with CA-AOMDV enhances the performance of WMNs in times of link failures in the network.
