Overview on wireless mesh networking and mobile transition techniques in IEEE 802 series
IEEE 802系列无线网络网状组网与移动切换技术综述

When constructing large scale wireless area networks,the traditional network techniques become unaccommodated due to lack of flexible extension and fast transition support.The IEEE standard organizations are devoted to advancing the technology of mesh networking and fast transition or mobility support.The mesh networking and transition or mobility support techniques were discussed based on Wireless Local Area Network(WLAN),Wireless Personal Area Network(WPAN) and Wireless Municipal Area Network(WMAN).The development tendency of wireless area networks was introduced to benefit the research and application of the wireless multihop networks.
