Abstract:
1. A method for managing the establishment of a fixed number of connections between detected neighbouring relay nodes in order to form an ad hoc network with wide coverage, the method being implemented in each current relay node and comprising: a classification of the neighbouring relay nodes according to spectral efficiency, the neighbouring relay nodes being accessible if their spectral efficiency value is greater than a spectral efficiency threshold value of the current relay node, the neighbouring relay nodes being non-accessible or accessible with upgrading if their spectral efficiency value is less than the spectral efficiency threshold value of the current relay node; upgrading the non-accessible or accessible with upgrading neighbouring relay nodes by increasing their spectral efficiency values to exceed the spectral efficiency threshold value of the current relay node; establishing a connection between the selected neighbouring relay nodes and the current relay node.
