Abstract: Data of a utility node that is unreliably heard may be relayed through another utility node. In some examples, utility nodes of a star network may attempt to transmit data to a collector, a repeater, a relay, a router, or a mobile device. When it is determined that a utility node is unable to reliably transmit data, a relay relationship may be established so that data of the unreliable utility node is relayed through the network.

Abstract translation: 不可靠地听到的效用节点的数据可以通过另一个效用节点进行中继。 在一些示例中，星形网络的效用节点可以尝试向收集器，中继器，中继器，路由器或移动设备发送数据。 当确定效用节点不能可靠地发送数据时，可以建立中继关系，使得不可靠效用节点的数据通过网络中继。
