Mesh networks, an alternative to network coverage problems: a literature review

The use of wireless networks (WLAN) offers a more affordable implementation alternative with respect to wired networks, due to its simplicity in installation and administration, allowing superior adaptability to most structures or environments. Mesh networks, which are a derivation of WLANs, offer many advantages and benefits, which satisfy higher coverage levels, in places where you want to maintain constant connectivity with the network, since it has multiple nodes communicating with each other, which help to maintain a stable connection. This article deals with a review of the projects, articles and works that refer to Mesh networks. It will also talk about the different routing protocols and standards, which allow optimizing routes for the exchange of information in the network, and where rules are specified on the operation in a WLAN respectively.
