Traffic density estimating method for e.g. wireless communication terminal, involves determining and aggregating traffic density data at coverage cells to determine density of mobile nodes on circulation paths

摘要

The method involves dividing circulation paths (X, Y) into coverage cells (X1, X2, X3). Local traffic density data in each cell is determined from respective neighborhood table by main mobile nodes (1, 6, 14) of the coverage cells during an intracellular counting process. The density data is aggregated at the level of each coverage cell to determine density of traffic of the mobile nodes on the circulation paths. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for routing data packets in an ad-hoc communication network (2) a wireless communication terminal forming a mobile node of the ad-hoc communication network (3) a computer program comprising a set of instructions for executing steps of a traffic density estimating method (4) a readable recording medium for storing a computer program (5) a signal transmitted through mobile nodes of an ad-hoc communication network.
