Abstract
This paper elaborated on the importance of nodes degree and clustering for the efficient operation of Backbone Wireless Mesh Networks (BWMNs). A novel Zero-Degree (S) algorithm proposed for clustering the BWMN based on Wireless Mesh Routers (WMRs) degree/number of WMRs’ connections, while ensuring Delay, Relay load and Cluster size constraints. It is shown that the performance of our algorithm outperforms the other alternatives. It places less Internet GateWays (IGWs), and exhibits smooth and consistent performance when subject to various Quality of Service (QoS) constraints.
