Abstract—In this paper we propose the channel assignment
scheme for multi-channel wireless mesh network (WMN), where
each mesh router is equipped with multiple radio interfaces. In
real WMN the number of radio interfaces is much higher than
the number of non-overlapping channels, which causes a lot of
connections between mesh nodes operate on the same radio
channel. Increasing number of simultaneous transmissions on the
same channel causes interference, which limits network capacity.
This paper presents a new centralized channel assignment
scheme called first random channel assignment algorithm
(FRCA). This algorithm efficiently utilizes radio interfaces to
achieve improvement of the network capacity. NS-2 simulator
was used to evaluate the performance of proposed solution and
simulation results were compared with others channel
assignment algorithms
