Abstract
A routing method for a wireless mesh network and a wireless node performing the method are provided. The method includes performing a route algorithm and finding available paths to reach a destination node, recording the available paths, a parent-child node relationship, and a link-state in a route table, and transmitting or transferring data by using an optimal path among the available paths. The method also includes selecting another available path as the optimal path when the optimal path is not operable, updating the route table, and notifying a parent wireless node. The method further includes performing a block route algorithm when receiving a node-added message for creating a block route table in a block where the newly-added node belongs, updating the route table according to the block route table for acquiring updated available paths, selecting one of the updated available paths as the optimal path, and notifying the parent wireless node.
