2-Terminal Reliability Computing Strategy for Backbone of Wireless Mesh Networks

Network reliability in wireless environment depends on many factors,so when calculating the 2-terminal reliability of wireless networks,they should be taken into account.This paper presents a 2-terminal computing strategy,which is used for backbone of Wireless Mesh Networks.The proposed strategy is based on the structural features of Wireless Mesh Networks,and gives full consideration to effects of the wireless node fault and the link fault between the pair nodes.Therefore,it can provide a reasonable evaluation for Wireless Mesh Network backbone layer in actual wireless environment.At last it is proved through the simulation that the given strategy can effectively improve the wireless network performance.
