Adjusting backhaul and fronthaul communications in a wireless mesh network

Abstract:

Adjusting backhaul and fronthaul communication links of wireless mesh networks are described. A wireless mesh network has a topology including fronthaul communication links and backhaul communication links. In one aspect, characteristics of network data packets transmitted within a wireless mesh network can be identified. Based on those characteristics, the topology of the wireless mesh network can change.
