EFFICIENT CONTROL OF INTERMEDIARY TABLES IN COMMUNICATION NETWORKS Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC H04W40/24 H04L12/771 

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: device is configured to determine, at least, one communication device (R1) with limited resources of, at least, the number of devices-intermediaries that have an entry in the intermediary table for the communication device (R1) with limited resources or are redirected from its name, and also with the possibility of initiating an action that causes the creation of more intermediaries with a record in the intermediary table for the communication device (R1) with limited resources or redirecting on its behalf, if it is defined, at least, one of the following conditions: a certain number of devices-intermediaries below the predetermined lower threshold, existing intermediaries do not have sufficient indicators of reliability, other intermediaries have sufficient or the best indicators of reliability, the threshold value changes, the characteristics of constrained devices change or there is a change in mates.

EFFECT: optimizing the overall performance and reliability characteristics of the communication network.
