Seawon Koh, Junho Kim, Sungwon Lee · 2017
In these days, the Internet is growing and the amount of user to use network increases rapidly. The mesh(ad-hoc) network has studied for many areas where people can't use the Internet. Also, mesh(ad-hoc) network is used for special purposes, and it expands its domain recently. However, low transfer rate and small coverage are a critical issue in mesh(ad-hoc) network. In this paper, it suggests improving transfer rate using BATMAN, Open vSwitch, and Dijkstra algorithm. This paper has three section. In the first section, it suggests network architecture for improving transfer rate. This structure consists of network, controller, and storage. In the second section, it explains the algorithm for finding the optimal path using modified Dijkstra algorithm. Finally, it shows the testbed to realize this proposal. We describe some advantage of controlling traffic flow.
