| Abstract | The IEEE 802.11s draft is the first attempt to develop a standard fully intended for the rapidly growing Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). Performance of a WMN is largely affected by the design of routing protocol and the associated metric. The recent version D2.02 of 802.11s has defined Hybrid Wireless Mesh Protocol (HWMP) and Airtime as the default path selection protocol and metric, respectively. However, Airtime and other well known existing routing metrics do not consider the impact of backoff delay and queueing delay, and hence, ignored some important factors like transmission time of the contending nodes, their loads and densities which might hinder the network performance. In this paper, we first identify the parameters that affect the forwarding time of a packet and then, design a new routing metric referred to as EFD (Expected Forwarding Delay) that estimates the forwarding time of a packet of particular traffic class in a node and selects the best path (high throughput) having minimum cumulative expected forwarding delay. We also made changes to the path selection criteria, metric propagation and route update intervals of HWMP, so that more stable paths can be chosen. Finally, we incorporate our new metric with the modified HWMP and study the performance through extensive simulations. Results indicate that the proposed mechanism outperforms others in terms of average network throughput, end-to-end delay and packet loss rate. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
