Abstract:
A mesh network comprising an originator station and a target station wherein each station comprises a controller and memory for storing a first path table for storing one or more paths to be used for sending data packets and a second path table for storing one or more alternative paths for sending data packets. The originator station is configured to broadcast a path request data packet for the target station and receive a first path reply data packet comprising a first alternative path to the target station. Then the originator station is further configured to store the first alternative path in the second path table of the originator station and receive at least one second path reply data packet comprising at least one second alternative path to the target station. Then the originator station is further configured to retrieve a best path, based on one or more signal parameters pertaining to each path, to the target station from the second path table of the originator station, store the best path to the target station in the first path table of the originator station and use the best path for sending data packets to target station. An originator station, an intermediate station and a target station in a mesh network is also disclosed. As well is a method of a station in a mesh network and a computer program product.

Claim (Index 20):
A mesh network station being an originator station comprising a controller, and a memory for storing a first path table for storing a current path to be used for sending data packets to a target station and a second path table, and wherein the controller of the originator station is configured to:\n obtain, from the first path table, the current path to the target station; and use the current path for sending one or more data packets to the target station; wherein the originator station is further configured to periodically update the current path to the target station in the first path table based on one or more alternative paths to the target station stored in the second path table of the originator station.
