Abstract: A system and method for providing secure communication between nodes (102, 106, 107) in a wireless multihopping communication network (100). The system and method achieve secure communication in a multihopping wireless network (100) by, for example, providing a transport medium for transmission of multihopping authentication messages (400) by the infrastructure devices, such as intelligent access points (106) or wireless routers (107), and user devices, such as mobile nodes (102). The authentication messages (400) are used to verify the identity of a node (102, 107) to thus permit the node (102, 107) to communicate within the network (100). The system and method further use, for example, encryption techniques for protecting the content data packet (1000) traffic being transmitted the nodes (102, 106, 107) within the wireless network (100).

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method to detect transient links in a timely and reliable way. The present invention introduces a metric that depends on the unicast data timeout measurements at the receiver node (102, 106, 107). This metric can be combined with existing solutions to estimate the link quality between nodes (102, 106, 107). Furthermore, the present invention takes the packet size into consideration when transceivers (108) update the link quality based on the packet completion rate to quantify the transient link quality more precisely.

Abstract: A system and method for improving the accuracy in computing the location of a mobile subscriber device (102) connected in a wireless network. The system and method employ a predictive filter (108, 112) including a measurement weight algorithm to decrease standard deviation error, to correctly determine a location of a mobile subscriber device (102). The predictive filter (118, 102) requires lower levels of computation, which allows for real-time processing on low-speed central processing units commonly used in wireless network.
