Node Discovery in a communication network

摘要

There is provided methods for node discovery in a network comprising the following steps: performing a first discovery process for discovering at least one first node of said network, using at least one first wireless communication parameter, adapting said at least one first wireless communication parameter, thereby obtaining at least one second wireless communication parameter coordinated with wireless communication parameters of nodes of at least one group of nodes discovered during the first discovery process and performing a second discovery process for discovering at least one second node of said network, using said at least one second wireless communication parameter. Embodiments of the invention provide better coordination during node discovery thereby making the node discovery faster and reducing interferences between the nodes. Each node may discover other nodes in a respective and dedicated direction, according to coordinated parameters.
