Method for evaluating locations of wireless access points in an hybrid network

摘要

A method for evaluating connectivity in an hybrid network is disclosed. The hybrid network comprising n wireless access points, the method comprises a step of elaborating an indirect connectivity matrix having a dimension equal to n×n, wherein an element being located at row i and line j of the indirect connectivity matrix corresponds to a direct or an indirect path between a first access point i and a second access point j, A signal sent from a first access point i to a second access point j on an indirect path is successively: received and re-sent by at least a third access point k. The matrix being remarkable in that the level of received signals between each access point is greater than a second level. The method further comprises a step of elaborating a direct connectivity matrix having a dimension equal to n×n, wherein an element being located at row i and line j of the direct connectivity matrix corresponds to a direct path between a first access point i and a second access point j wherein the level of received signal is greater than a first level.;A station configured for evaluating connectivity in an hybrid network is further disclosed.
