EXTENSION METHOD OF A ROUTING PROTOCOL TO SUPPORT MACHINE TO MACHINE (M2M) SERVICE IN A WIRELESS MESH NETWORK, CAPABLE OF REFLECTING STATES OF M2M SERVICE TERMINALS TO THE OPERATION OF THE WIRELESS MESH NETWORK IN REAL-TIME

摘要

PURPOSE: An extension method of a routing protocol to support M2M service in a wireless mesh network is provided to sense that there is a problem in a specific device of the wireless mesh network, and to search the type of the problem of the device and the propagation direction of the problem.;CONSTITUTION: A mesh gate (110) transmits a gate declaration message to a plurality of mesh stations (120,130) of a wireless mesh network (S100). The mesh gate receives a first path request message from the first mesh station of the plurality of mesh stations (S120). The mesh gate transmits a first path response message to the first mesh station, in response to the first path request message (S140). The mesh gate stores the path information to the first mesh station on the basis of the first path request message.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013;[Reference numerals] (S100) RANN and GANN
