发明名称 ROUTING METHOD FOR WIRELESS AND DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS
摘要 Method for routing packets (2) within a wireless telecommunication network (3), wherein the packets are transmitted from one source station (5) to at least one sink station (6) through a plurality of mobile relay stations (Ni-1, Ni, Ni+1). The packets can be directly transmitted (108-110) through a wireless link (7) between neighbour mobile relay stations (N, Ni-1, Ni, Ni+1). The routing of packets in the mobile relay stations (Ni) is based on information autonomously monitored by this mobile relay station (Ni) about its neighbour mobile relay stations (N, Ni-1, Ni+1). Each packet is routed in said mobile relay station (Ni) to one, or more, next station(s) (Ni+1) chosen from among the set of all of its neighbour mobile relay stations (N, Ni-1, Ni+1). Each packet (2) contains a header indicating the source station (5) which emitted the packet, at least one sink station (6) to which the packet is destined, and the neighbour mobile relay station (Ni+1) to which said packet will be transmitted in the next hop. The indication of the next neighbour mobile relay station (Ni+1) is replaced in each mobile relay station (Ni). The choice (104) of the next station (Ni+1) made from among the mobile relay stations (Ni) depends on the distance between the next mobile relay station (Ni+1) and the sink station (6). The position of the mobile relay stations (4, 5, 6, N, Ni-1, Ni, Ni+1) may be determined by a positioning system, e.g., a GPS, in the mobile relay stations and communicated to all neighbour mobile relay stations.
