PLoS ONE 13(10):Įditor: Lixiang Li, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, CHINA The analytic results show that the proposed power node-type aware routing algorithm metric can clearly improve the network performance by reducing the network overheads and maintaining a high delivery ratio with low latency.Ĭitation: Al-Hadhrami T, Saeed F, Olajide F (2018) Power aware routing algorithms (PARA) in wireless mesh networks for emergency management. This algorithm was implemented and tested in a proven simulator. This paper proposes a power aware routing algorithm (PARA) for WMNs, which selects optimal paths to send packets, mainly based on the power level of next node along the path. The existing power aware routing algorithms used in wireless networks cannot fully fit the characteristics of WMNs, to be used for emergency recovery. Power aware routing plays a significant role in WMNs, in order to provide continuous efficient emergency services. An incident area network (IAN) needs a reliable and lively routing path during disaster recovery and emergency response operations when infrastructure-based communications and power resources have been destroyed and no routes are available. These capabilities make WMNs a promising technology for incident and emergency communication. Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are multi-hop wireless networks with instant deployment, self-healing, self-organization and self-configuration features. Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) integrate the advantages of WLANs and mobile Ad Hoc networks, which have become the key techniques of next-generation wireless networks in the context of emergency recovery.
