  2. Mesh networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_networking

    Illustration of a partially connected mesh network. A fully connected mesh network is where each node is connected to every other node in the network. A mesh network is a local area network topology in which the infrastructure nodes (i.e. bridges, switches, and other infrastructure devices) connect directly, dynamically and non-hierarchically to as many other nodes as possible and cooperate ...

  3. Wireless mesh network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_mesh_network

    A wireless mesh network ( WMN) is a communications network made up of radio nodes organized in a mesh topology. It can also be a form of wireless ad hoc network. [1] A mesh refers to rich interconnection among devices or nodes. Wireless mesh networks often consist of mesh clients, mesh routers and gateways. Mobility of nodes is less frequent.

  4. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    Network topology is the topological [4] structure of a network and may be depicted physically or logically. It is an application of graph theory [3] wherein communicating devices are modeled as nodes and the connections between the devices are modeled as links or lines between the nodes. Physical topology is the placement of the various ...

  5. Torus interconnect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torus_interconnect

    Torus network topology. A torus interconnect is a switch-less topology that can be seen as a mesh interconnect with nodes arranged in a rectilinear array of N = 2, 3, or more dimensions, with processors connected to their nearest neighbors, and corresponding processors on opposite edges of the array connected.

  6. Optical mesh network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_mesh_network

    Transport network based on SONET/SDH ring architecture. An optical mesh network is a type of optical telecommunications network employing wired fiber-optic communication or wireless free-space optical communication in a mesh network architecture . Most optical mesh networks use fiber-optic communication and are operated by internet service ...

  7. Bluetooth mesh networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_mesh_networking

    Bluetooth Mesh is a mesh networking standard that operates on a flood network principle. It's based on the nodes relaying the messages: every relay node that receives a network packet that. can be retransmitted with TTL = TTL - 1. Message caching is used to prevent relaying recently seen messages.

  8. Z-Wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-Wave

    Z-Wave is a wireless communications protocol used primarily for residential and commercial building automation. It is a mesh network using low-energy radio waves to communicate from device to device, allowing for wireless control of smart home devices, such as smart lights, security systems, thermostats, sensors, smart door locks, and garage door openers.

  9. Backbone network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbone_network

    v. t. e. A backbone or core network is a part of a computer network which interconnects networks, providing a path for the exchange of information between different LANs or subnetworks. [1] A backbone can tie together diverse networks in the same building, in different buildings in a campus environment, or over wide areas.
