<p>A frame forwarding scheme for network stations (12) operating in a shared medium data transmissions network (10). The frame forwarding scheme uses frame payload encapsulating delimiters (90) and (120), as well as payload control information, to enable a frame originating from a first station (12a) and intended for a second station (12k) to be forwarded to the second station (12k) by an intermediate station (12b). The first station (12a) selects a station as the intermediate station (12b) for purposes of frame forwarding based on the data transmission quality or reliability to be achieved using that station as an intermediate station.</p> |
