With the fast development of wireless technologies, Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are becoming an important networking infrastructure due to their low cost and increased high speed wireless Internet connectivity. In our previous work, we implemented the Linearly Decreasing Vmax Method (LDVM) for our WMN-PSO simulation system. In this paper, we implement a new replacement method for mesh routers called Rational Decrement of Vmax Method (RDVM). We use Size of Giant Component (SGC) and Number of Covered Mesh Clients (NCMC) as metrics for optimization. From the simulation results, we found that RDVM converges faster to best solution than LDVM.
