Title
Performance Evaluation of Wireless Mesh Networks in Smart Cities Scenarios
Abstract
A significant increase in the Internet traffic is expected for future scenarios of smart cities due to the emergence of billions of heterogeneous Internet of Things (IoT) objects with the ability to collect and exchange information. Thus, understanding the appropriate Access Network infrastructures to support such scenarios is indispensable. In this paper, we study the performance of Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) as an Access Network solution for smart cities. The results describe the behavior of WMN with IoT devices generating different packet sizes and loads in several topologies. The results and discussions provide guidelines for WMN planning in smart cities of the future.
