A method and apparatus for improving the efficiency of a network. A source node determines the propagation delay for data to reach a destination node. This enables the source node to transmit data more efficiently by ensuring a greater portion of a specific time slot is used for receiving data by the destination node. The destination node then determines if it is connected to any other nodes, and determines the propagation delay between the other connected nodes. The process continues until a node detects it is not connected to any other nodes for which a propagation delay has not been computed. Thus, each node on the network knows the propagation delay between each node, and the nodes utilize this information to more efficiently transfer data through the network.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant d'améliorer l'efficacité d'un réseau. Un noeud source détermine le retard de propagation nécessaire à des données pour atteindre un noeud destination, ce qui permet au noeud source de transmettre des données plus efficacement car la majeure partie d'un créneau temporel spécifique est utilisée pour la réception des données par le noeud destination. Le noeud destination détermine ensuite s'il est connecté à d'autres noeuds, et détermine le retard de propagation entre les autres noeuds connectés. Le procédé se poursuit jusqu'à ce qu'un noeud détecte qu'il n'est connecté à aucun autre noeud pour lequel le retard de propagation n'a pas été calculé. De cette manière, chaque noeud du réseau connaît le retard de propagation entre chaque noeud, et les noeuds utilisent ces informations pour transférer plus efficacement les données sur le réseau.
