Potential-Field-Based Anycast Routing in Large-Scale Wireless Mesh Networks : A Distributed Algorithm based on Finite Difference Method
Sangsu Jung, Malaz Kserawi, June‐Koo Kevin Rhee · 2010
In this paper, we propose an anycast routing scheme for large-scale wireless mesh networks, which requires only one-hop local information with no flooding overhead. We develop an analytical model for anycast mesh networks based on an electrostatic theory. A finite difference method contributes to achieving gateway load balancing with constant control overheads. We verify the performance of the proposed scheme by simulations.
