Abstract
Two recent topologies-Manhattan Street Network (MSN) and HR(4)-Net (or 2-D Torus)-proposed for metropolitan areas are primarily mesh connect ed networks. In this brief contribution, we compare the average distan ce, the diameter, the terminal reliability, and the cost. Simulation r esults indicate that they are fairly close in performance, while the M SN is observed to be more cost-effective than the HR(4)-Net.
