Abstract

Today, the performance of routing mechanisms in Wireless Multihop Networks (WMNs) is still limited by the lower layers. While recent cross-layer approaches take advantage of the characteristics of the medium, they are often based on traditional physical layers such as OFDM. State-of-the-art techniques used in one-hop scenarios, such as OFDMA or MIMO, pose a significant challenge in practical multihop networks, since typically Channel State Information (CSI) at the transmitter is required. Due to its volatile nature, disseminating timely CSI in the network is often infeasible. We generalize Corridor-based Routing to enable advanced physical layers in WMNs. Instead of routing packets from node to node, we forward them along fully-connected groups of nodes. As a result (1) CSI only needs to be exchanged locally to enable cooperation in a group, and (2) groups can adaptively choose the best physical layer technique according to CSI. We investigate the benefits of Corridor-based Routing and present a protocol design that enables operation of corridors in WMNs.
