Abstract
Network hardware devices are organized in a wireless mesh network (WMN) including a base station node (BSN) device connected to a tower in a geographic area and multiple home access node (HAN) relay devices located in a geographic area and separated from one another by a distance up to approximately 500 meters. A first set of HAN relay devices is organized in a first linear sub-mesh network with a first deployment layout having an S-shape or an inverse S-shape. Each of the first set of HAN relay devices establishes a frequency-division duplex (FDD) link between itself and at least one other HAN relay device and at least one of the first set of HAN relay devices establishes a time-division duplex (TDD) link over which the at least one of the HAN relay devices communicates with the BSN device.
