Abstract

A method for exchanging information within a mesh network that has an array of nodes defined by four quadrants. The method includes the initial step of exchanging information from a set of nodes in one quadrant to a set of nodes located in an adjacent quadrant. The exchange of information simultaneously occurs in both a vertical and horizontal direction within the array. Information is then exchanged between nodes within the same quadrant and subquadrants.
