    Abstract: In one embodiment, a technique for load balancing of throughput for multi-PHY networks using decision trees is provided. A first device of a mesh communication network may collect at least one transmission metric indicative of a primary link and a secondary link between the first device and a second device of the mesh communication network. The first device may provide the at least one transmission metric as input to one or more decision trees comprising one or more attributes that are each indicative of a threshold for a corresponding transmission metric. The first device may obtain an output from the decision tree comprising a selection of either the primary link or the secondary link. The first device may send, based on the output from the decision tree, one or more packets to the second device using the selected link.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a technique for dynamic transmission power in wireless mesh networks using supervised and semi-supervised learning is provided. A first device of a mesh communication network may receive a set of transmission power metrics indicative of network conditions between a second device of the mesh communication network and a plurality of child nodes associated with the second device. The first device may provide the set of transmission power metrics as input to a supervised machine learning process that probabilistically determines one or more minimum transmission power thresholds for nodes of the mesh communication network. The first device may obtain an output from the supervised machine learning process comprising an indication of a particular minimum transmission power threshold for the second device. The first device may control the second device to exchange packets with the plurality of child nodes using the particular minimum transmission power threshold.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for identifying a deployment scheme for forming a wireless mesh network based on environmental characteristics and an optimum deployment scheme. In some examples, a geographical area for deployment of a wireless mesh network is identified. Additionally, environmental information of the geographical area can be collected. Network characteristics of an optimum deployment scheme for forming the wireless mesh network can be defined. As follows, a deployment scheme for forming the wireless mesh network can be identified based on the network characteristics of the optimum deployment scheme and the environmental information of the geographical area.

    Abstract: A method includes determining a number of drops of a plurality of messages sent to a first node of a plurality of nodes within a mesh network. Based at least in part on the number of drops of the plurality of messages exceeding a threshold number of drops for a time period, decrementing a first rating assigned to the first node to a second rating assigned to the first node. Based at least in part on the second rating being below a rating threshold, determining that the first node is a potentially malicious node. Based at least in part on a first distance to the first node being larger than a distance threshold, identifying that the first node is a malicious node. The method may further include ending communications with the first node.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises: joining, by a network device, a network topology rooted by a root network device in a data network, and in response transmitting an advertisement indicating a position of the network device in the network topology; suppressing a second transmission based on initiating a deferred transmission operation in response to transmitting the advertisement; maintaining the deferred transmission operation to enable a prescribed minimum number of other network devices to join the network topology at respective identified lower positions than the position of the network device; and changing, by the network device, from the deferred transmission operation to an accelerated operation in response to expiration of a prescribed deferral interval or detecting the prescribed minimum number of other network devices having the respective identified lower positions, the accelerated operation enabling the network device to initiate transmission of a data packet before the other network devices.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method comprises: determining, by a network device that is configured for joining a local directed acyclic graph (DAG) instance in a data network, an unreachability by the network device to any member of the local DAG instance; generating and broadcasting, by the network device, a request message that identifies the network device requesting to join the local DAG instance, the request message causing a neighboring network device in a global DAG instance of the data network to rebroadcast the request message for reception by a member of the local DAG instance, the neighboring network device a non-member of the local DAG instance; and receiving, by the network device, a reply message indicating a member of the local DAG instance is reachable via the neighboring network device in the global DAG instance.
