Abstract:

 

Industrial Internet of things (IIoT) is a paradigm
that changes the way people interact with infrastructures by
enabling ubiquitous connection to the Internet. It allows to
design connected infrastructures in industrial environments, e.g.,
factories, in order to support innovative services and improve
efficiency. While the advantages of IIoT are numerous, it has
some fundamental issues such as propagation of signal through
metallic obstacles, i.e., walls in industrial environments. To
address this issue, we propose a hybrid wired-wireless mesh
node and network topology called hybrid mesh network (HMN),
enabling the signal to cross over the metallic obstacles in harsh
environments. The proposed hybrid mesh node utilizes dualradio
feature of IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi standard to improve the
performance of the proposed HMN further considering multihop
communications. The effects of the packet size and different
fading channels on the performance of the proposed HMN
are investigated through various simulations. In addition, the
performance of the proposed HMN is compared with that of
conventional wireless mesh network (WMN). The results reveal
that the proposed HMN outperforms conventional WMN and the
proposed topology is promising for the implementation of high
performance wireless mesh networks in harsh environments.
