MOBILE RELAY NETWORK INTELLIGENT ROUTING

摘要

A method for determining a route for communication across a network in real-time, said method including: collecting a set of network delay information at a caller device; storing the set of network delay information at the caller device; based on a stored set of network delay information at the caller device and the callee device, determining, by the caller device, in cooperation with the callee device, a set of relay server candidates to be used to relay data packets between the caller device and the callee device; and based on calculated round trip times for probing data packets set out and sent back, selecting, by the caller device in cooperation with the callee device, a shortest routing path as an active routing path for use for transporting a first data packet between the caller device and the callee device.

1. A computer-implemented method for determining a route for communication across a network in real-time, said computer-implemented method comprising:
collecting a set of network delay information at a caller device, wherein said set of network delay information comprises distance information relating to a distance between said caller device, a callee device and relay servers of a set of relay servers within said network; storing said set of network delay information at said caller device; based on a stored set of network delay information at said caller device and said callee device, determining by said caller device in cooperation with said callee device, a set of relay server candidates of said set of relay servers to be used to relay data packets between said caller device and said callee device; calculating, by said caller device in cooperation with said callee device, a round trip time for probing data packets sent out and sent back by said caller device and said callee device and to each other through relay server candidates of said set of relay server candidates; and based on said calculating, selecting, by said caller device in cooperation with said callee device, a shortest routing path as an active routing path for use for transporting a first data packet of said data packets between said caller device and said callee device.
