Abstract

The WMNs are coming up as a new networking trend for setting up a wireless networking infrastructure in metropolitan areas. Network operators prefer WMN because of easy installation and fast deployment of it. It may also result in reduction of monetary investment and cost of operation. The routing in WMNs is challenging task because of the unpredictable variations in the wireless environments. In this paper, three routing protocols, AOMDV, MOLSR, and MHRP, are compared in terms of their performance in WMN.
