发明名称 Mobile ad-hoc network and methods for performing functions therein based upon weighted quality of service metrics
摘要 A method is provided for communicating between a source node (1) and a destination node (4) in a mobile ad-hoc network (20). The method may include transmitting a quality-of-service (QoS) route request from the source node (1) to the destination node (4) via a plurality of intermediate nodes (2,3,5) therebetween to discover routing to the destination node (4) based upon a plurality of QoS parameters. Responsive to the QoS route request, a plurality of potential routes between the source node (1) and the destination node (4) may be determined along with a QoS metric corresponding to each of the QoS parameters for each potential route. Further, the QoS parameters may be ranked in an order of importance, and each of the QoS metrics weighted based upon the ranking of QoS parameters. As such, the weighted QoS metrics may be compared, and one of the potential routes may be selected based thereon for the transmission of message data.
