The Internet of Things (IoT) enables embedded devices to connect to the internet either through IP or the web in a physical environment. The increase in performance of wireless access services, adaptive load balancing, and interference routing metric becomes the key challenges in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). However, in the case of IoT over WMN, a large number of users generate abundant net flows, which can result in network traffic jam. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a Load Balancing and Interference Delay Aware routing metric algorithm to efficiently address the issues present in the current work. The proposed scheme efficiently utilizes the available mesh station queue information and the number of mesh stations suffering from channel interference in the available path. The simulations results show that the proposed scheme performed superior to the existing routing metrics present in the current literature for similar purposes.
