Experimental Analysis on Active Bandwidth Estimation Tools for Mesh Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)

Available bandwidth estimation is useful for route selection in a network environment. While many tools has been created to estimate the available bandwidth, mainly by two techniques passive and active measurement. Passive measurement is performed by observing the traffic without intruding the netwo...
