| Summary: | Routing metrics that will strike a balanced tradeoff between low computational overheads and high throughput, low delay, load balancing and low interference still remain a greater challenge to researchers in wireless networks. This paper considered various routing metrics that were used in routing protocols of wireless mesh networks (WMNs) and identified the effect of each of these routing metrics on the performance of the protocols to deliver high throughput. The paper show case the performance comparism of cluster based routing protocols to expose the need for more robust network routing metrics to satisfy the requirement of WMNs for a highly scalable network without scarifying the quality of service (QoS) in the network. |
