Abstract

Wireless mesh network research has been an active area in the past few years. In order to expand on the wealth of mesh network research, we have deployed a wireless mesh network in a natural reserve to serve as a research platform. QuRiNet, the Quail Ridge wireless mesh network, contains 35 mesh nodes in a 2,000 acre reserve. It is being used by both network and ecological researchers as a experimental testbed and a backhaul network for data collection. For this demostration, we will provide insights into the network architecture and deployment issues.
