Abstract
Systems and methods for reducing the amount of messages transmitted in large-scale distributed mesh networks are disclosed. Network components include transceivers and memory storing instructions which, when executed by a processing unit, reduce transmissions made by the transceiver within the network. The instructions executed by processing unit could (1) create an expiration parameter to limit the number of times a signal is retransmitted, (2) form groups of network components from which one or a few of the group network components are designated to respond on behalf of the group, (3) keep advertising transmissions dormant by default until called upon, (4) employ a time delay parameter for a time interval in which no transmission may be made, and (5) include message IDs in control signals that are transmitted.
