Given the increasing interest on wireless mesh architectures, a new IEEE working group, 802.11s was created with the purpose to standardize an architecture and protocol that support both broadcast/multicast and unicast delivery over self-configuring multi-hop topologies between Access Points (APs). This paper presents a detailed simulation study of the performance of the predominant mesh routing protocols being considered in IEEE 802.11s: Ad Hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR). Moreover, for large-scale wireless mesh networks, advantages of OLSR and Fisheye Routing Protocol (FSR) are gracefully integrated. Results show that OFLSR provides better scalability in terms of traffic load and host mobility than AODV in mesh networks.
