INTERFERENCE-BASED ROUTING IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

A wireless network comprising nodes uses measurement or prediction of interference at the nodes to select a route for a message through the network that results in acceptable amounts of interference. The interference may be caused to the message by other traffic carried by the network or by other networks, in which case the amount of interference to the nodes on the selected route must be acceptable, or may be caused to the other traffic by the message being routed, in which case, the amount of interference to the nodes outside of the selected route must be acceptable.
