Ad hoc communication system and method for routing speech packets therein

摘要

A method for organizing a plurality of communication devices of an ad hoc communication system into a communication network. The devices are organized into one or more communication graphs where at least one of the graphs is a rooted tree. The invention also provides an ad hoc communication system wherein the devices are organized into one or more communication graphs, where at least one of the graphs is a rooted tree. A method for routing a communication session in the system is also provided where a session is routed from the calling node to the tree root and from the tree root to the called node. In a preferred embodiment, shortcuts are sought in the session route.
