QuRiNet: a wireless testbed for network and ecological research

Published:20 September 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

Wireless mesh network research has been an active area in the past few years. In order to expand on the wealth of mesh network research, we have deployed a wireless mesh network in a natural reserve to serve as a research platform. QuRiNet, the Quail Ridge wireless mesh network, contains 35 mesh nodes in a 2,000 acre reserve. It is being used by both network and ecological researchers as a experimental testbed and a backhaul network for data collection. For this demostration, we will provide insights into the network architecture and deployment issues.
