Abstract
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) with in band
backhauling use the same antennas for the backhaul as well as
for the access. Therefore antennas of next hop neighbours need to
be directed to each other. However, such a configuration is not
possible in a three-sectorized hexagonal cell deployment. In this
paper we derive several alternative topologies that are suitable
for WMNs with in band backhauling. We show that a topology
with four directional antennas per node and backhaul
connectivity between indirect neighbours outperforms competing
topologies in terms of handover rate, optimal maximum power,
and system capacity.
