Abstract

Information about network topology is essential for the operation of wireless networks in general, and of networked control systems in particular. In this chapter, we explain the foundations of topology detection, present our protocol (The protocol ProTop of the ProNet 4.0 protocol stack is an implementation of ATDP.) Automatic Topology Discovery Protocol (ATDP) [2] for topology detection in TDMA-based wireless multi-hop networks, survey and assess related work, and draw conclusions.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The protocol ProTop of the ProNet 4.0 protocol stack is an implementation of ATDP.

  2. 2.

    Obtained by reducing G to the set of all nodes and all communication links.

  3. 3.

    Transmissions overlapping in time, frequency, and space are called collisions.

  4. 4.

    Note that for the operation of links, we still assume that GC ⊆ GI ⊆ GS, i.e., a node vj in communication range of vi is also in interference and sensing range of vi, and that a node vj in interference range of vi is also in sensing range of vi.

  5. 5.

    To exchange NOTERM messages, ATDP uses Arbitrating and Cooperative Transfer Protocol (ACTP), which is presented in detail in Chap. 6.

  6. 6.

    In an implementation, this is to be complemented by redundancy measures.
