Introduction
•Traffic Balancing
-Based on reactive routing protocol (can also deployed for proactive routing protocol)
-Each node records the medium usage around itself and put this information into route request (inrease overThresholdCounter if measured medium usage is over the certain threshold)
-Sender chooses the path with smallest overThresholdCounter
•Defect
-Traffic Balancing verifies if the medium is busy just by the measured medium usage (using a constant threshold)
