<p>A method assigns addresses to nodes in a wireless network. An address space is defined as an n-dimensional grid, each grid intersection having coordinates of a corresponding possible node of a wireless network, a number of components of each coordinate being equal to a dimensionality of the grid, and the coordinates forming a logical address of the corresponding possible node. A component of the coordinates is selected to be associated with a predetermined value. A parent node assigns to a child node joining the wireless network an unallocated logical address as a child node address such that any component of the child node address is modified, by one, from a corresponding component of the parent node if the selected component of the parent node has the predetermined value. Otherwise, the parent node assigns to the child node joining the wireless network an unallocated logical address as a child node address such that the selected component of the child node address is modified, by one, from the selected component of the parent node.</p> |
