Abstract

n this paper, we propose two geographic routing metrics applied to wireless mesh networks that consider the use of channel width adaptation. The proposed metrics are evaluated through simulations jointly with a next hop channel width selection algorithm. The results show that the proposed metrics and algorithm generate greater throughput values when compared with existing geographic routing metrics.
