A Comparative Analysis of Channel Switching Latency for OLSR Routing Protocols in Conventional and SDN Multi-Hop Wireless Mesh Networks

OLSR that uses channel switching systems with multi hop-based and energy-aware routing protocol to establish stable/reliable routes in HMWNs. OLSR combines multi-hop and multi radio with a channel switching-based and energy-aware routing protocol. The channel switching system is important to evaluate the nodes in terms of latency and route discovery in forwarding packets in terms of multi-dimensional data generated values are calculated for each node and developed for two methods as conventional and SDN is used to send the packets through highly channel switched nodes having sufficient energy to minimize the possibility of breaking the route. This protocol is implemented over the Wireless Mesh Networks and simulated using MATLAB. Performance evaluated from the parameters such as delay, energy consumed and throughput.
