Heterogeneous Wireless Mesh Networks• Features
• Fast Deployment• Low Cost• Self-Configuration• Robustness
• Scenarios• Emergency situations• Short duration, high needs events• Peace missions, campaign hospitals, …• Possible evolution to stable infrastructure• Some of these scenarios are being studied on the EU CARMEN Project
(BT,DT,NEC,ALUD,FHG,UCD,AGH,UC3M)
• Multiple technologies• Flexibility
Approach: architecture
Heterogeneous Mesh Network
Media Independent Interface
• Use of heterogeneous technologies to form the mesh
• Need for a media independent interface to handle the heterogeneity
• Extension of IEEE 802.21 for the media independent interface
• Current solutions (e.g. 11s) do not account for multiple technologies
• Need for mesh specific extensions to 802.21
