摘要

In this letter we present a flow aware opportunistic routing protocol over wireless mesh networks Firstly a forwarder set selection mechanism is proposed to avoid potential flow contention thus alleviating possible congestion from the increased number of flows Secondly a Round Robin packet sending fashion combined with batch by batch acknowledgement is introduced to provide reliability and improve through put Evaluations show that our protocol significantly outperforms a seminal opportunistic routing protocol MORE under both single and multiple flow scenarios
