  • Publication number: 20160308728
    Abstract: Methods and systems for discovery of a set of nodes in a network. The method comprises selecting a node amongst nodes in a group of nodes to be processed; and instructing to implement a discovery procedure for the selected node. The procedure comprises broadcasting a neighbor discovery request from a node currently selected on a shared transmission medium of the network; and receiving at the node currently selected replies sent by neighbor nodes on the shared transmission medium and adding the neighbor nodes to the group of nodes to be processed; and repeating the steps of selecting and instructing for other nodes in the group of nodes to be processed, until all nodes of the set are discovered.

  • Publication number: 20140233464
    Abstract: A method for transmitting data to and from nodes of a multi-hop network with a TDMA scheme is suggested. The network is clustered into N clusters, wherein each cluster of the N clusters has at least one of the nodes. In a first step, the TDMA scheme is organized by periodic superframes. Each superframe of the periodic superframes has a number of frames including at least one broadcast frame and one collection frame for the N clusters. In a second step, one dedicated communication channel is shared by the N clusters within the broadcast frame. In a third step, N separate communication channels are used by the N clusters within the collection frame.
