METHOD FOR ROUTING PACKETS, MULTI-HOP WIRELESS NETWORK AND NODE FOR ROUTING PACKETS

摘要

A method for routing packets in a multi-hop wireless heterogeneous network including nodes with different computational and energy resources includes monitoring a set of parameters of an operation of a node in the network, wherein the operation includes routing packets to the nodes of the network according to a mode of operation (MOP) specifying a type of the routing and modifying the MOP of the node in response to detecting a change in at least one parameter of the operation. The information about the modified MOP is broadcasted to the network and the packets are routed to the nodes according to the modified MOP.
