Abstract

Embodiments are directed to systems and methods for selecting appropriate transmission configurations in a mobile ad hoc frequency division duplexing mesh network. In one scenario, a node receives transmission parameters from a neighboring node, where the transmission parameters include an indication of the node's current transmission configuration. The node receives network parameters from neighboring nodes, where the network parameters include connection information describing the node's current network connection to the neighboring nodes. Then, based on the received transmission parameters and the received network parameters, the node calculates a change factor which indicates the desirability of changing transmission configuration. The node accesses the calculated change factor to determine whether the transmission configuration of the node is to be changed and, upon determining that the change factor indicates that the transmission configuration of the node should be changed, the transmission configuration of the node is changed to a second, different transmission configuration.
