FIELD: physics, computer engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to wireless cellular/self-organizing (ad hoc) networks, particularly, to processing of route request messages at routing protocols to request. Proposed is the method of detection of route between source node and destination node including intermediate replay flag of reply of route request message by source node, avalanche distribution in said wireless network and reply to said request by means of the first intermediate node and having an actual route to destination node. Described are system and method for detection of the best route. Note here that route reply message becomes the first route message. Here, selection of the best route is effected between them and source node on the basis of cumulative metrics received in route request messages receive by destination node. Extra route reply message is created to perform single-address transmission thereof to source node.
EFFECT: fast detection of the route with optimum metrics between source node and one or more destination nodes.
