Automation Manegement System For Wlan Mesh Network Testbed

Wireless mesh network (WMN) is a kind of dynamic self-organize and self-configure wireless network, with the characteristics of flexible architecture, easy maintenance, robustness, reliable service coverage, therefore it has been one of the focus of research community. Real testbed is an important method for studying WMN.Through the early work, wireless mesh network testbed has the right to assess the capacity of wireless networks. However, due to lack of centralized configuration management of the environment, the realization of this measure is not convenient. This is one of key challenges faced by an experimenter using a distributed large-scale testbed.After studying the technologies and methods of the WLAN Mesh network testbed, an automation management system (AMS), which models and critical technique are presented in detail. is presented and realized, in this thesis. Experimental results show that AMS guarantees the stability of the platform provides user-friendly interfaces to simplify the configuration and the data collection process, scales with the size of the distributed system and allows dynamic control over the measurement collection process.
