ABSTRACT:
A method for routing data through a packet communications network including the steps of generating a concatenated data packet containing a plurality of messages for transmission to a plurality of radios in the network, appending a first set of assignment commands and destination codes to the concatenated data packet, and transmitting the concatenated data packet to a first set of radios of the plurality of radios in a single transmission. The method further includes the steps of extracting messages from the concatenated data packet for the first set of radios, appending a second set of assignment commands and destination codes to the concatenated data packet, and relaying the concatenated data packet to a second set of radios of the plurality of radios in a single transmission. In a preferred embodiment, the adaptive protocol for packet communications network of the present invention forms the concatenated data packet in a headend radio. The data packet includes the set of codes for the first set of radios directly communicating with the headend radio. The data packet is transmitted to the first set of radios in a single transmission during each frame. Messages having a destination code for a radio of the first set of radios are extracted and sent to a host device serving the first set of radios. The data packet is reformatted to include the second set of codes and is retransmitted to the second set of radios in a single transmission.
