This paper presents an analysis of the scaling properties of a three-tier hierarchical hybrid wireless network. The network under consideration, which arises in mesh networking scenarios such as 802.11s, aims to achieve better capacity than ad hoc networks without infrastructure support, and also reduces the investment on wired infrastructure. In particular, the hierarchical hybrid network has three tiers consisting of mobile nodes, radio forwarding nodes and wired access points. For a three-level network of n1 access points, n2 forwarding nodes and n3 mobile nodes, the paper analyzes throughput in terms of two tiers of packets: those transmitted by mobile nodes (low-tier) and those transmitted by forwarding nodes and access points (high-tier).
