- the routing metric size comes in, which is determined from the number of running over ei ⁇ NEN node paths.
- a path through the communication network runs from one
- Start or send node to a destination or recipient node. If the start and destination nodes are not adjacent, the path passes over one or more additional nodes.
- a routing metric is used to evaluate paths so that you can decide between alternate paths using the routing metric. For example, from a plurality of alternative paths between a particular sender and a particular receiver, one can use that path which has the lowest value of the routing metric, i. H . the shortest length according to the routing metric.
- the size which enters the routing metric according to the invention is determined from the number of paths passing through a node.

- FIG. 1 a network consisting of six nodes
- Figures 2a to 2h steps of a first invention
- Figures 3a and 3b steps of a second invention
- FIG. 1 shows a network consisting of nodes 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
- the nodes of the network communicate with each other. the, wherein a common transmission medium is used, such as. B. a common radio frequency.
- a common transmission medium such as. B. a common radio frequency.
- adjacent nodes are connected to each other, d. H . those nodes that can communicate directly with each other.
- Node 0 is adjacent to the nodes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5
- the bone ⁇ th 1 is adjacent to the nodes 0, 2, 3 and 4
- the nodes 2 adjacent to the nodes 0 and 1 node 3 is be ⁇ nachbart to the nodes 0, 1 and 4
- node 4 is adjacent to the nodes 0, 1 and 3
- the node 5 is adjacent to the node 0.
- the invention is preferably used in larger networks However, the explanation of the procedure is simplified for smaller networks such as that shown in Figure 1.
- a path in the network passes from a start node to a destination node via none, one or more other nodes. For example, a path between node 2 and node 4 may pass over node 0 or over nodes 0 and 1.
- D. H A complete routing table for the network is determined. Since usually several potential paths between a particular Startkno ⁇ th and a particular destination node exist, then a weighting respectively. Evaluate paths by the length of paths specified by a routing metric.
- a well-known example of a routing metric is hop-count metrics, where the length of a path is the number of hops used by the path. In this case, short paths are preferred over longer ones.
- the number of paths that originate from each node is determined for each node. H . for which the respective node is the start node, and the number of paths, which run over the respective node.
- This variable is referred to below as B k , where k is the index of the jewei ⁇ ligen node.
- Each kote is assigned the sum of its B k and the B k 's of the nodes adjacent to it.
- This quantity is referred to as B k cum, where k is the In ⁇ dex of the respective node.
- the length of a path based on this routing metric is the sum of the B k cum s of the nodes that are transmitting along the path, d. H . of the sending node and the node over which the path passes.
- This choice of routing metric lies in the fact that the size of B k cum is suitable to describe the medium access time of a bone ⁇ least on the shared by the nodes of the network Kochtra ⁇ transfer medium.
- a node can not access the transmission medium if a neighboring node currently uses the transmission medium for sending or receiving messages. This means that a node and it benachbar ⁇ ter nodes transmit at the same time not news and / or receive. The more neighboring nodes having a node through which extend a plurality of paths, the longer it usually takes, can access the Sprinttra ⁇ transfer medium to this node.
- the routing metric based length of the path between nodes 3 and 4 passing over node 1 is, for example:
- the paths are entered into a routing table in the form of a matrix, each column of the matrix corresponding to a particular destination node, and each row of the matrix to a particular node sending or forwarding a message to that destination node.
- An entry z for the matrix element with the position (x, y) means that the node x has a which determines for node y to send to node z.
- Routing table ROUTES are initially assigned all entries with the value (-1).
- routing table ROUTES For each entry in the routing table ROUTES thus all possible paths to the routing metric are evaluated and selected the path with the lowest value for the length of the Rou ⁇ ting metric and carried off in the routing table ROUTES.
- the evaluation of the different paths is done using the values of the routing metric determined in the last step.
- the size B k cum is calculated.
- B k cum the quantity B k , 0 is calculated beforehand. This is the fraction of B k in which node 0 is the destination node. Since the node 0 sends no message to itself, stands in the first place of the vector B k , 0 is 0. Since according to the routing table ROUTES exactly one path to the node 0 starts from the node 1 and no path exists, which via The same applies to the nodes 2, 3, 4 and 5. Since so far only the node 0 was considered to be the destination node, B k is equal to B k , 0 . Since B k has been determined for all nodes, B k cum can be calculated: For node 0, the following applies:
- the node 1 is considered as a destination node.
- the entries in the routing table ROUTES are determined by evaluating all possible paths to the node 1 with the routing metric and selecting the path most favorable according to the routing metric. Accordingly, the node 0 sends a specific message for the node 1 directly to the node 1, therefore stands at the position (0, 1) of the routing table ROUTES a 1. The same applies to the other node 1 be ⁇ adjacent node 2 , 3 and 4.
- the node 5 sends a message intended for the node 1 to the node 0, therefore stands at the position (5, 1) of the routing table ROUTES a 0.
- first B k i is calculated. This is the fraction of B k at which node 1 is the destination node.
- a path to node 1 originates from node 0, and a path to node 1 passes through node 0, namely the path from node 5 to node 1. Therefore, it comes first k of B, i a 2. Since node 1 in itself does not send any message, is at the first site of the vector k B, i represents a 0.
- For the node 2 to 5 is in each case a 1 k in B, i because of Each of these nodes emanates a path to node 1 and no path goes to node 1 via these nodes.
- FIG. 2d shows the third step, in which the node 2 is regarded as the destination node
- FIG. 2e shows the fourth step, in which the node 3 is regarded as the destination node
- FIG. 2f the fifth step in which the node 4 is regarded as a destination node
- the sixth step is shown, in which the node 5 as
- Target node is considered.
- the routing table ROUTES is first filled in by determining, using the routing metric, to which node a message destined for the respective destination node is to be sent.
- the B k cum used in the preceding step is used, i. H . the entries are selected taking into account the routing metric specified by B k cum .
- B k cum is calculated.
- the Rou ⁇ ting metric is received about the size B k cum, and on the other hand, in the routing metric on the size B k cum the particular paths.
- the routing table ROUTES and the routing metric are alternately updated.
- FIGS. 2b to 2g show a first round of calculation for determining the paths through the network, beginning with the consideration of the node 0 as the destination node and continuing through the nodes 1, 2, 3, 4 to the node 5. will drive. Alternatively, another order may be used. Following the first round, a second round can be performed, again starting with node 0 as the destination node. Thus, in the first step of the second round, the first column of the routing table ROUTES is redetermined using the routing metric according to the size B k cum from the last step of the first round. Subsequently, B k and B k cum are determined.
- FIGS. 3a and 3b depict the steps of an alternative calculation sequence.
- the initialization state corresponds to that of FIG. 2a.
- nodes 0 In the first round of nodes 0 is regarded as a destination node in th ers ⁇ step and it is filled in the first column of the routing table ROUTES.
- B k is cum from the previous round, i. H . B k cum used from the initiation. Thereafter, B k and B k cum are not recalculated. Rather, in the second step, the node 1 is regarded as the destination node and the second column of the routing Table ROUTES determined, again B k cum from the Initiali ⁇ tion is used. The same is also done with respect to nodes 2, 3, 4 and 5 as destination nodes. For all Einträ ⁇ the routing table ROUTES ge the first round thus the values B k cum initialization are used.
- Some entries of the routing table ROUTES have two entries after the first round. This occurs when the routing metric is the same for these two paths; H . the paths are degenerate. In principle, this situation can also occur in the method described with reference to FIGS. 2a to 2h. This equivalence of several routes from one particular node disappears constricting calculation rounds usually in the fol ⁇ .
- FIG. 3b shows the result of the second round.
- the entries for the routing table rOUTES ⁇ be true in each case which are used to complete the first round be calculated ⁇ B k cum for evaluating the routes.
- B k and B k cum are computed based on this routing table ROUTES as shown in FIG. 3b.
- the second variant of the method according to the invention shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b has the advantage that the calculation effort is lower, since Bk cum only has to be determined once per round and not, as provided in the first variant, after each step.
- a larger number of rounds is usually necessary before convergence is achieved.
- the calculated paths of the routing table ROUTES of Figures 2 and 3 are used to send messages between nodes 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
- a recalculation of the paths is necessary if the topology of the network ⁇ work changes, d. H . when the neighborhood relationships between the nodes change, or when nodes re-join the network, or when nodes leave the network.
- the device performing the calculation knows the complete topology of the network. This can be z. B. be realized by each node collects information about its neighborhood and those known to him "link state" in ⁇ formation passes on to his neighbor or to a central facility. The process is collected and after the information on the network topology passed, does not affect to the method for determining the paths.
- the calculation of the paths can be done by a node of the network, which forwards the result to the other nodes.
- a central device which knows the topology of the network, can also carry out the determination of the paths in accordance with the methods presented. Furthermore, it is possible for a plurality of nodes or each node of the network to perform the presented calculations. Since the nodes start from the same network topology and use the same algorithm to compute the paths, they also get the same result.
- the calculated quantity B k cum can also be passed on, so that the nodes determine the routing table ROUTES on the basis of the received quantity B k cum .
- the method of the invention determined paths to edge nodes, whereby the paths may be longer than when using nodes in the middle of the network, but a lower utilization of the paths occurs.
- the use of the inventive routing metric results in increased end-to-end data throughput and reduced end-to-end time delay.
- the inventive method can be used in any networks in which the nodes communicate with each other. Particularly advantageous is the use in radio communication systems such.
