MANAGEMENT OF COMMUNICATION LINKS BETWEEN NODES IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

A system and method for management of communication links between nodes in a wireless communication network (100). The system and method perform the operations of estimating an expected rate of change in the characteristics pertaining to communication over a communication link in the network (100), and assigning a value associated with the link based on the expected rate of change. The system and method also adjust the rate of change of the value associated with the link based on the condition of the link.
