SUPERFRAME STRUCTURE AND BEACON SCHEDULING METHOD FOR MESH NETWORKING

摘要

PURPOSE: A super frame structure and a beacon scheduling method for mesh networking are provided to support a mesh topology in a beacon mode and to enable easy adaptation of network environment change using a distribution-type beacon scheduling algorithm. CONSTITUTION: A join node performs beacon scanning(S201). The join node obtains neighboring mode beacon allocation information of a neighboring node(S203). The join node selects a non-allocated beacon slot(S205). A node which selects an own beacon slot transmits a beacon from the beacon slot periodically(S211).
