A method is provided for initiating broadcasting payload data, the method comprising: wirelessly transmitting a message from a broadcast device to a network device, the message containing configuration information of the broadcasting; receiving the message at the network device and extracting the configuration information at the network device; and configuring the network device for receiving at least a part of the broadcasted payload data based on the configuration information. Further, a broadcast device for broadcasting payload data and a network device for receiving broadcasted payload data are provided.

A method of transmitting routing information within a network is disclosed. In an embodiment, the method involves providing a message including a digital word in which at least each node in the mesh network other than the one node and the another node is represented by a single binary bit. The binary bit associated with each node is set to one value if the node is in the preferred route and the other value if the node is not in the preferred route.

Routing table updating

A method of synchronising the reference clock of a first wireless device with a master reference clock of a second wireless device via a wireless network. The method involves transmitting, from the second wireless device to the first wireless device, a dedicated synchronisation frame via a dedicated synchronisation channel; receiving the dedicated synchronisation frame at the first wireless device; and synchronising the reference clock of the first wireless device with the master reference clock of the second wireless device based on the received dedicated synchronisation frame.
