  • Patent number: 9615375
    Abstract: A system and method for communication resource allocation, a resource including a time slot and at least one associated channel, said channel including at least one transmit and/or receive frequency usable during said time slot, in a mobile meshed network including a first set of radio transceivers communicating with one another via radio links, at least one group, comprising a second set of at least one radio transceiver of said first set, said second set including a master transceiver in a master/subordinate relationship with all the radio transceivers of the second set, a central radio transceiver of the network belonging to said first set.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 2013
    Date of Patent: April 4, 2017
    Assignee: Thales

  • Patent number: 9125077
    Abstract: A method for managing node communications in a mobile ad-hoc network is provided where at least a node in the said network performs the following steps: identifying if it is a Potentially Disruptive Node (PDN) or a non-PDN node, a PDN node being a node that has a number of connected 1-hop neighbor nodes greater than a predetermined value K; when the node is identified as a PDN node, selecting a subset of its 1-hop neighbor nodes, the selected nodes being the only 1-hop neighbor nodes that are allowed to communicate directly with the PDN node, the selected nodes being called Bridge Nodes (BN), non-BN nodes being called Regular Nodes (RN), the said RN nodes being able to communicate with PDN nodes via the selected BN nodes.
    Type: Grant
