APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SETTING UP ROUTINE PATH IN PERSONAL COMMUNICATION WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and a method for preventing reception of a plurality of RREP messages as to an RREQ message that quickly determines the presence / absence of interruption of a routine path in which a source node is set. SOLUTION: In a mobile communication system comprising a plurality of nodes including a target node and the source node going to set up a routine path to the target node, at least one node without storing a routine table relays the setting of the routine path from the source node to the target node. Using information included in a Route Request message stores information with respect to the node for relaying the Route Request message and transmits the Route Request message to an adjacent node. Using the information for storing a Route Reply message with respect to the received Route Request message transmits the Route Request message to a node for requesting the Route Request to efficiently set up the routine path.
