ABSTRACT:
A wireless communications system comprising a number of node devices and a base station, and having a routing calculator, wherein the system is operating with a first routing map, the routing calculator gathers data relating to communications between node devices and determines whether route improvement is indicated and, if so, the routing calculator generates an improved routing solution, and instructions are relayed via the first routing map to the node devices for implementing a new routing map generated from the optimized routing solution. Also, a method of operating a wireless communication system, including a base station and a number of node devices the method comprising determining whether system improvement is indicated, if so, generating an improved system configuration, distributing data related to the improved system configuration to the node devices, and replacing the current communication configuration with the improved system configuration.
