This document summarizes and compares several routing metrics for wireless mesh networks, including Expected Transmission Count (ETX), Expected Transmission Time (ETT), and Load Aware Expected Transmission Time (LAETT). It finds that while ETX is simple, ETT and LAETT improve upon it by incorporating transmission rates and load balancing, resulting in higher packet delivery ratios, throughput, and bandwidth utilization according to simulations. The document provides background on wireless mesh networks and describes the routing metrics in detail.
