We wanted to share with you this simple simulator that takes into account Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct devices and constructs meshes based on whether the devices are in range or not.
With this tool, we can compute the average size of the mesh, the average number of hotspots a Wi-Fi client is covered by, how many devices remain unconnected, etc. Pretty cool isn’t?
If you want to learn how it works and create your own meshes, the simulator is available at https://research.rightmesh.io/density/
Note: the computation for largest mesh is not optimized, so if you use too dense of a mesh with too high of a hotspot percentage it can take quite a lot of time to compute. Have fun!
