Abstract:
Wireless networks have recently gained on significance. In environments where it is impossible to build traditional infrastructure wireless networks, ad hoc and wireless mesh networks are used. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate certain multicast routing algorithms used in ad hoc and wireless mesh networks. The first part of the paper addresses the subject of ad hoc and wireless mesh networks, as well as the issue of multicasting in these networks. Furthermore, the paper contains a review of routing algorithms. In the last part of the paper the conducted research is presented and a multicast algorithms with the best performance in WMNs is chosen.
