Method and system of determining state of node during reserved slot in wireless network

摘要

A method and system for determining a state of a first node in a wireless network consisting of a plurality of nodes. The first node determines one of at least two power sensitivity levels by considering at least one of an available power and a standby packet. The first node determines whether it remains in active state or inactive state by considering a power sensitivity level transmitted from at least one second node which corresponds to the first node and the determined power sensitivity level. Also, the corresponding node has an identical state to the first node, so that unnecessary power consumption can be prevented.
