   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. Service set (802.11 network) | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_set_(802.11_network)

   A mesh basic service set (MBSS) is a self-contained network of mesh stations that share a mesh profile, defined in 802.11s. [9] Each node may also be an access point hosting its own basic service set, for example using the mesh BSS to provide Internet access for local users. In such a system, the BSS created by the access point is distinct from ...

5. Wireless ad hoc network | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_ad_hoc_network

   Wireless ad hoc network. A wireless ad hoc network[1] (WANET) or mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a decentralized type of wireless network. The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure, such as routers or wireless access points. Instead, each node participates in routing by forwarding data for other nodes.

6. Wireless distribution system | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_distribution_system

   A wireless distribution system (WDS) is a system enabling the wireless interconnection of access points in an IEEE 802.11 network. It allows a wireless network to be expanded using multiple access points without the traditional requirement for a wired backbone to link them. The notable advantage of WDS over other solutions is that it preserves ...

7. Wireless access point | Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_access_point

   In computer networking, a wireless access point (WAP) (also just access point (AP)) is a networking hardware device that allows other Wi-Fi devices to connect to a wired network or wireless network. As a standalone device, the AP may have a wired or wireless connection to a switch or router, but in a wireless router it can also be an integral ...
