This paper addresses the issues of the unbalanced traffic condition in the wireless networks. This unbalanced condition leads to the poor utilization of networks resources by overloading some mesh nodes. Due to this congestion packet are dropped and data cannot be delivered efficiently. This heavy packet loss lowers the user perceived quality and reduces the overall QoS. Using LBTC protocol we can overcome the issues like congestion and packet loss by identifying the congested node and rerouting the data to a newly selected node which offer less congestion. It improves the QOS of the network and balances the network traffic.
