Abstract

In this paper we present a QoS based routing protocol for wireless mesh networks that tries to maximize the probability of successful transmissions while minimizing the end-to-end delay. The proposed routing protocol uses reactive route discoveries to collect key parameters from candidate routes to estimate the probability of success and delay of data packets transmitted over them. To make sure that it estimates these quantities for the flow of data packets and not control packets, we propose a new route quality metric that uses performance models of data packet transmissions that are obtained from offline experiments. We present simulation based performance evaluations of the proposed QoS based routing protocol and show its benefits in comparison to some other known routing protocols.
