SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING DATA TRANSMISSION ROUTE IN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM CONSISTING OF NODES

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for determining routing which requires bottom power consumption for transmitting data, and using other routing in accordance with the degree of importance of data to be transmitted.

SOLUTION: In a communication system including a base node, at least one adjacent node and a start node which transmits data required by the base node to the base node directly or by intermediating the adjacent node, this method allows the start node to transmit the required data. The method includes steps for: measuring power required for transmitting data between nodes comprising the communication system; searching a route whereon power consumption required for transmitting the data from the node to the departure site node using the measured power becomes minimum; and transmitting the required data using the searched route.
