    Abstract: A battery-powered node within a wireless mesh network performs energy-aware packet routing based on multiple factors. The battery powered node computes, for a given link to an adjacent node, the energy needed to transmit a packet to the adjacent node. The battery-powered node also determines the amount of battery energy remaining in the adjacent node. Based on these two factors, the battery powered node computes a link cost associated with the link to the adjacent node. The battery-powered node performs a similar computation for all adjacent nodes and then forwards packets via these adjacent nodes based on the associated link costs. The battery-powered node also maintains a table of routes through adjacent nodes, and reroutes packets through different adjacent nodes in response to link failures.

    Abstract: A node residing within a wireless mesh network is configured to transmit a state transition message to a downstream node also residing within the wireless mesh network. The state transition message indicates a new operating state for the downstream node. Upon receipt of the state transition message, the downstream node may transition to the new operating state and then transmit an acknowledgement message back to the node that sent the state transition message. Alternatively, the downstream node may transmit the acknowledgement message back to the node that sent the state transition message first, and then transition to the new operating state.

    Abstract translation: 驻留在无线网状网络内的节点被配置为将状态转换消息发送到也位于无线网状网络内的下游节点。 状态转换消息指示下游节点的新的操作状态。 在接收到状态转换消息时,下游节点可以转换到新的操作状态,然后将确认消息发送回发送状态转换消息的节点。 或者,下游节点可以将确认消息发送回首先发送状态转换消息的节点,然后转换到新的操作状态。
