Abstract

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) employ hybrid distributed mobile networks with instant deployment and capabilities Such as: self_healing, self_organization and self_configuration. These abilities make WMNs a likely technology for incident communication. An Incident Area Network (IAN) requires a reliable and efficient routing path in an environment, where infrastructure-based communications have been destroyed. Routing awareness plays a significant part in this situation to deliver dynamic disaster facilities. Though, most of the proposed aware routing schemes do not entirely exploit the characteristics of WMNs. In this article, we propose a network environment-aware routing scheme for emergency response (NEARMesh) in WMNs, which employs a network routing information map to select the optimized path, based on cooperative consideration of route awareness information. This scheme is carried out and verified in NCTNus simulator. Imitation outcomes clearly display that the suggested scheme can enhance the network performance by maintaining a high delivery ratio with low latency while reducing the energy ingesting by minimizing network expenses.
