Abstract
Communicating using a wireless mesh network is disclosed. A route is determined from a first node to each other node in the wireless mesh network including one or more intermediate nodes that receive and transmit the packet. A frame length used for communicating a packet is selected based on the routes from the first node to each other node in the wireless mesh network. Node to node communications are selected within the frame along the route such that a predetermined average communication latency time is achieved.
