Abstract: | In scalable last-mile broadband networks such as wireless mesh networks (WMNs), quality-of-service (QoS) concerns are vital to multimedia applications such as video-conferencing and voice over IP (VoIP). Crucial decisions involve the number of backhauls that are to be deployed as well as the optimal assignment of paths and bandwidths. We focus on cost effectiveness and QoS requirements to develop a solution based on Lagrangean Relaxation and the subgradient method. Our approach satisfies QoS demands and minimizes costs more effectively than general algorithms, as demonstrated by our experimental results. |
