ESP32 Mesh network throughput?

[dimdim]

Hi,
What is the ESP32 Mesh throughput?
We are planning to have around 50 devices and need at least 250kbps total throughput.

Thanks

Hi dimdim,

Confirm one thing to you:
"average 5kbps per device" or "250kbps per device with same data"？

The magnitude of ESP-MESH throughput is Mbps in the unicast case.
So it could easily satisfy the first case.

Hi yudong,

We need an average 5kbps per device.
The maximum distance will be around 50 meters.

Thanks

I have same question related to MESH throughput....
But, I look for some indication of the capability of the ESP32 running MESH, what is the "overhead" of the ESP-MESH on the ESP32.

I found this: ESP32 Wi-Fi Throughput
Type/Throughput Air In Lab Shield-box Test Tool IDF Version (commit ID)
UDP TX 30 MBit/sec 60 MBit/sec iperf example 05838641

What can I expect of throughput, maybe considering x number of hops?
What can I expect of throughput, best case?

Thanks....
