Despite availability of multiple non-overlapping channels in the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz spectrum, most IEEE 802.11-based multi-hop ad hoc networks operate in a single channel. This substantially reduces the bandwidth available to each node due to interference between successive hops on the same path as well as between neighboring paths. As a result, conventional single-channel ad hoc network architecture can not be applied to form effective Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) that can adequately support the bandwidth requirements of a last-mile wireless broadband access network, or a campus-scale wireless backbone. This paper describes novel multi-channel WMN architecture, called Hyacinth that effectively addresses this bandwidth problem by fully exploiting non-overlapped radio channels made available by the IEEE 802.11 standards.
