What is Mesh Networking
Mesh networking has created quite a buzz in the wireless community. It promises self-configuring, multi-hop networking capability that lowers node costs and power consumption, and increases reliability in a real-world noisy environment.
Types of Mesh Networking
Mesh networking is typically implemented in two basic modes: infrastructure and/or client meshing. To gain the maximum benefit that meshing can offer, both modes need to be supported simultaneously and seamlessly in a single network.
Infrastructure Meshing
Client Meshing
Enter Mesh Networking
Since we can determine which “nodes” in this network are in range of the other “nodes” in the network, we could build a small table into each of the nodes that may look like this:
So Mesh Networking IS
Network Nodes can be Fixed or Mobile
Network Size can be from 2 Nodes to unlimited
Data can be sensors or anything that needs to be
monitored
Power can be from batteries or AC mains
Network will be self configurable, no human intervention
needed even in a mobile configuration
Unlimited range with repeaters
