MiniMesh exploits the varying channel conditions to devices in a WPAN, thereby enabling the sender and receiver of a flow to transmit at high data rates when the channel condition is favorable. In addition, MiniMesh addresses the coverage problem that limits peer-to-peer communications and is backward compatible with the IEEE 802.15.3 specification. We have implemented MiniMesh and the DS-UWB physical layer that offers data rates ranging from 28 Mbps to 1 Gbps in the\n            <jats:italic>ns-2<\/jats:italic>\n            simulator. Our results show devices obtain at least a three fold increase in throughput when only the piconet controller is serving as a relay; further increases are possible with additional relays. Moreover, a flow experiences faster recovery from packet loss and is able to maintain a high throughput even when channel conditions worsen.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1145\/1347364.1347365","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,12]],"date-time":"2008-03-12T22:35:44Z","timestamp":1205361344000},"page":"57-71","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1145\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["MiniMesh"],"prefix":"10.1145","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Kwan-Wu","family":"Chin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Wollongong, Northfields Ave, NSW, Australia"}]},{"given":"Darryn","family":"Lowe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Wollongong, Northfields Ave, NSW, Australia"}]}],"member":"320","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_1_1","unstructured":"IEEE \"802.15 WPAN task group 3 (TG3).\" http:\/\/www.ieee802.org\/15\/pub\/TG3.html.
