| Research Abstract |
We have proposed Layer 2 routing scheme using VLAN for bi-directional handoff performed in wireless mesh networks aiming at fast route reconstruction before and after handoff. The basic configuration of the proposed scheme needs VLANs the number of which equal to the number of access points(AP) in the mesh networks, and its scalability in terms of number of APs is limited. To overcome this problem we proposed improved configuration of the proposed scheme which significantly reduces the number of required VLANs while maintaining routing performance. The performance evaluation shows the improved configuration reduces the number of required VLAN by 10% compared with the basic configuration, while it achieves the increase of the route hop length constructed in this configuration compared with the basic configuration within 5%.
