Abstract
Systems and methods disclosed herein optimize radio metrics between nodes within a mesh network by waking up nodes not actively connected to a mesh network. A mesh network system includes a computing device configured to determine that a radio metric between a first node and a second node in a mesh network is above a predetermined threshold, identify a third node operating in sleep mode, when the radio metric is above the predetermined threshold, and cause the third node to wake and connect to the mesh network, the third node is configured to relay communication between the first node and the second node.
