DEVICE AND METHOD FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION USED IN WIRELESS AD HOC NETWORK

摘要

A method executed by a wireless communication device used in a wireless ad hoc network includes: designating a bit in a loop detection array added to a received frame in accordance with identification information of the wireless communication device; deciding that a route in which the received frame has been transmitted is not a loop when the bit designated in the loop detection array is not used; deciding that the route is a loop when the bit designated in the loop detection array is used; updating the bit designated in the loop detection array to a state of being used and transmitting the received frame toward a destination node when it is decided that the route is not a loop; and returning the received frame to an adjacent node that is a local transmission source of the received frame when it is decided that the route is a loop.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a program for causing a processor in a wireless communication device to execute a wireless communication process, the wireless communication device being used in a wireless ad hoc network, the wireless communication process comprising:
designating a bit in a loop detection array added to a received frame in accordance with identification information for identifying the wireless communication device; deciding that a route in which the received frame has been transmitted is not a loop when the bit designated in the loop detection array is not used; deciding that a route in which the received frame has been transmitted is a loop when the bit designated in the loop detection array is used; updating the bit designated in the loop detection array to a state of being used and transmitting the received frame toward a destination node when it is decided that the route in which the received frame has been transmitted is not a loop; and returning the received frame to an adjacent node that is a local transmission source of the received frame when it is decided that the route in which the received frame has been transmitted is a loop.
