Abstract
EN Wireless Mesh Networks can give an answer for many open issues in the field of wireless networks. For WMN to be effective enough, it is required for a chosen routing protocol based on routing metrics that fits application needs to be used properly. Until now, many different routing protocols have been proposed. All of them have their own characteristics and there is no easy way to make any reliable comparison. The proposed paper presents a review of the current state-of-the-art WMN routing protocols and metrics. The paper also includes an evaluation of properties and proposed classification of WMN routing protocols. Furthermore authors attempted to make a comparison of different features of selected routing metrics and characteristics of selected routing protocols.
