摘要: In one aspect, a node in a mesh network receives presence messages from neighbor node in the mesh network, and determines a number of neighbor nodes, based on the received presence messages. The node determines a duty cycle percentage to be requested of the neighbor nodes, based on the number of the neighbor nodes, the duty cycle percentage indicating a minimum percentage of time the neighbor nodes should be awake to receive messages, so as to ensure a predetermined probability of successful reception of messages transmitted by the node. The node broadcasts the duty cycle percentage for reception by the neighbor nodes. The node also receives requested duty cycle percentages from corresponding neighbor nodes, sets an operating duty cycle of the node based on a greatest duty cycle percentage of the received duty cycle percentages, and sleeps and wakes according to the set duty cycle of the node.

摘要: A method for establishing redundant paths between a source node and the destination node, source node and a destination node in a wireless mesh network, said method comprising the steps of establishing, by said source node, a first path between said source node and said destination node, wherein said first path is associated with a first sequence number and comprises one or more first intermediate nodes in said wireless mesh network; determining, by said source node, to establish a second path between said source node and said destination node; transmitting, by said source node, a path request to a plurality of nodes in said wireless mesh network, wherein said path request identifies said destination node and that said requested second path is redundant to said first path; and said path request is transmitted no earlier than a predetermined duration after said first path is established; receiving, by said source node, from said destination node, a path reply that identifies said second path, wherein said second path comprises one or more second intermediate nodes, and wherein said one or more second intermediate are exclusive of said one or more first intermediate nodes. Complimentary methods and devices for establishing redundant paths in a wireless mesh network are also presented herein.

摘要: A method of updating a number of retransmissions for a mesh node in a mesh network comprising a plurality of mesh nodes, wherein said number of retransmissions define how often said mesh node retransmits received messages within said mesh network, said method comprising the steps of receiving, by said mesh node, a number of data messages, wherein each of said data messages originates from a same source mesh node and is intended for a same destination mesh node in said mesh network, transmitting, by said mesh node, each of said number of data messages based on said number of retransmissions receiving, by said mesh node, a number of acknowledgement messages, wherein each acknowledgement message originates from said RD mesh node and acknowledges receipt of a particular data message of said first number of data messages, and updating, by said mesh node, said number of retransmissions based on said number of data messages and based on said number of acknowledgement messages. Complementary devices for performing a method according to the invention are also presented herein.

摘要: The present disclosure relates to an access point (2) and to a sensor station (4) and methods performed therein. The access point (2) is adapted to communicate with the sensor station (4) and vice versa, over a communication channel using a contention based channel access. The access point (2) monitors (110) the traffic of the communication channel and estimates a congestion level of the communication channel. Information indicating the congestion level is incorporated (125) into a synchronization frame (200; 300) which is transmitted (140) to the sensor station (4). The sensor station (4) uses the congestion information when it selects which modulation and coding scheme it should use when sending data to the access point.
