On Optimizing Gateway Placement for Throughput in Wireless Mesh Networks

<p/> <p>An innovative gateway placement scheme is proposed for wireless mesh networks (WMNs) in this paper. It determines the location of a gateway based on a new performance metric called multihop traffic-flow weight (MTW). The MTW computation takes into account many factors that impact...
