Abstract

The massive increase in the number of connected devices with the advent of the Internet of Things era calls for self-organizing and dynamic networks. The state-of-the-art wireless mesh networking protocols that provide self-organizing networks like BATMAN and OLSR do not address the demands of 5G networks such as low latency and high reliability. In this demonstration, we exhibit how we build a reliable low latency network out of a chaotic and dynamic wireless mesh network. We combine the principles of opportunistic routing and network coding to achieve this. We let the audience to interact with the nodes of the wireless mesh networks, i.e. causing node failures, link changes, etc. We demonstrate how our mesh network retains all of its flows intact without any service interruption despite these interactions and node failures.
