Abstract

This paper shows performance evaluation results of a wireless mesh network employing an 802.11s standard and low cost Intel Classmate PCs. The experiments consist of throughput and coverage range determination, in indoor and outdoor scenarios, in which net and communication multihop coverage tests were done. The results show maximum throughput of 14 Mbps for TCP and 12 Mbps for UDP respectively, proving the proposed solution's viability for the digital inclusion process in public schools.
