A METHOD OF, AND A NODE DEVICE FOR, SUPPORTING ESTABLISHMENT OF A PATH FROM A SOURCE NODE TO A DESTINATION NODE IN WIRELESS MESH NETWORK

摘要

A method of supporting establishment of a path from a source node to a destination node in wireless mesh network, said path comprising at least one intermediate node, said method comprising the steps of receiving, by an intermediate node, a synchronous notification message, from a neighbouring node, for synchronizing said intermediary node with said neighbouring node, and establishing, by said intermediate node, in response to said receipt of said synchronous notification message, a reciprocal path between said intermediate node and said neighbouring node, wherein said reciprocal path is used in a path between said source node and said destination node. A corresponding node device arranged for performing the method is also presented herein.
