Abstract:
A method for multi-channel beaconing in a network comprising for each network node of a plurality of network nodes: determining a link or a pseudo random sequence of links that identifies when and on what channel the network node is scheduled to transmit beacons; receiving the schedule for when and on which channel the network node should listen for beacons from one or more neighbor nodes of the plurality of network nodes; transmitting beacons based the established schedule; and listening for beacons from one or more neighbor nodes based on the schedule received from these neighbor nodes.
