METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR USING SELECTED BEARER CHANNELS

摘要

Using bearer channels for wireless nodes includes initiating communication among the wireless nodes that include a node and one or more neighbor nodes. An adaptive channel operable to communicate messages between the node and the neighbor nodes is established. One or more bearer channels are selected. The one or more neighbor nodes are notified of the one or more selected bearer channels using the adaptive channel. The node and the neighbor nodes communicate over the bearer channels.

1. A method for using one or more bearer channels for one or more wireless nodes, comprising:
initiating communication among a plurality of wireless nodes, the plurality of wireless nodes comprising a node and one or more neighbor nodes; establishing an adaptive channel operable to communicate a plurality of messages through an ad hoc network between the node and the one or more neighbor nodes; independently selecting one or more bearer channels in each wireless node; notifying the one or more neighbor nodes of the one or more selected bearer channels using the adaptive channel; and communicating between the node and the one or more neighbor nodes over the one or more selected bearer channels, wherein when the node has data to send to a one-hop neighbor of the one or more neighbor nodes, a one of the bearer channels of the one-hop neighbor is selected for a handshake and data exchange with the one-hop neighbor.
