Abstract
Wireless Mesh Networks are networks in which each node communicates directly with one or more peer nodes. Originally the term 'mesh' suggests that all nodes on the network are interconnected, though most modern meshes today connect only a sub-set of nodes to each other [1]. This paper aims to describe the licensed and unlicensed spectrum that is available under UCC allocations for use in a wireless mesh network. It provides a review of currently available or developing techniques to improve the efficiency of WiMAX, Wi-Fi and GSM spectrum use in wireless mesh networks. Finally the paper recommends techniques that would improve the ability of wireless mesh networks to develop using currently allocated spectrum and suggests whether or not there is sufficient spectrum to sustain the anticipated demand for wireless mesh networks.
