US Patent 11943106 Supervised traffic management in SigMesh networks

Systems and methods of managing a Bluetooth SigMesh network involve a supervisor configured to monitor one or more network parameters of the SigMesh network, such as topology, message identity, transmit count, transmit interval, relay retransmit count, or relay retransmit interval. The supervisor determines whether one or more of the network parameters are to be adjusted for improving transmission efficiency, reducing traffic congestion, avoiding flooding of packets on the mesh network, or ensuring injection of packets in the SigMesh network. The supervisor provides feedback to one or more nodes with the adjusted network parameters to improve transmission efficiency and reduce traffic in the SigMesh network.
