  • Patent number: 11057294
    Abstract: The route control method and the route setting device according to the present invention is configured such that a learning unit is prepared for each path, a function form of the learning unit of the path in forwarding a packet is adjusted by having traffic information (packet arrival rate, queue length, and the like) and congestion information (congested or not congested) of this path as teacher data, and when this path is congested, changing to a path with an output of no congestion among the learning units is executed. Thus, since the learning unit optimizes the function form, changing to an alternative path can be immediately executed even when the congestion incidentally occurs on the path.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 24, 2018
    Date of Patent: July 6, 2021
    Assignees: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATION, TOHOKU UNIVERSITY

  • Patent number: 10051546
    Abstract: In a communication control method and a mobile terminal it is possible to realize multi-hop communication having three or more hops in a routing system based on a star-type network connection topology which is more efficient than conventional table drive-type and storage transfer-type routings. An operation of relaying transfer data stored within a mobile terminal before the dissolution of s group to a mobile terminal which newly becomes a group fellow from the outside of the group is repeated any number of times by the repeated execution of the dissolution/reconfiguration of the group. Consequently, it is possible to realize multi-hop communication for relaying and transferring the transfer data even if the upper limit (two hops) of the number of relay hops in a star connection-type system is exceeded.
