Abstract
A more efficient mesh network can be achieved by optimizing relay hops between node devices. A number of routes can be determined between node devices of various orders. Furthermore, a number of more efficient routes can be determined between the node devices of various orders. Based on the more efficient routes, relay paths between the node devices can either be maintained or terminated. Accordingly, route metrics can be updated dynamically to reevaluate which routes are more efficient than other routes, thereby optimizing system performance.
