AB  - Due to the growing demand and wide usage of
Wireless Mesh Network (WMN), the situation wherein
two or more links using the same channel is increasing.
This causes interference and other related issues which
degrades the network performance. Also, choosing an
appropriate gateway among the available multiple
gateways is a critical concern. In order to address these
issues in this study, a dynamic channel assignment and
gateway selection protocol for multi-channel hybrid
wireless mesh network is proposed. In this protocol, a
suitable gateway is chosen which fulfils the criteria of the
source node. Then channels are assigned in the network
by the gateway between itself and the mobile nodes in a
fair manner. Simulation results show that the proposed
technique attains maximum throughput and minimized
delay when compared to the existing cross-layer control
dynamic gateway selection approach.
