M. Tech. Electrical Engineering. / Discusses the transport of real time data in WMNs as a challenging problem. The main cause of this problem is transport layer protocols. These protocols have traditionally been used successfully for wired networks. However, their raw implementation in wireless networks has proven to be inefficient, since wireless channels are characterized by a higher Bit Error Rate (BER), Packet Loss Rate (PLR), interference, bandwidth limitations and mobility when compared to wired network channels. Thus, for the efficient transport of real time video in WMNs, transport protocols need to be adapted to be adapted to wireless networks since they were not originally developed for this application.
