Mesh network resiliency technology, in which a first routing configuration for nodes of a mesh network is determined, the first routing configuration being appropriate when a first power source of the mesh network is available. Routing data that indicates routing responsibilities within the first routing configuration is provided to first nodes of the mesh network. An interruption of the first power source for the mesh network is detected by nodes of the mesh network. In response to detecting the interruption, a second routing configuration for nodes of the mesh network is determined, the second routing configuration being appropriate when the first power source of the mesh network is unavailable. Routing data that indicates routing responsibilities within the second configuration is provided to second nodes of the mesh network, each of the second nodes including a second power source that is different than the first power source.

A system, method and apparatus for node selection of a sensor network. Multiple sensor networks can operate in or around a monitored location. Nodes can be organized amongst the multiple sensor networks using remote configuration updates that are provided by a host system to a sensor network node.

A device, system and method is provided for managing battery power of a telecommunications device within a remote wireless device. An amount of power is determined that is consumed by the telecommunications device of the remote wireless device during an operation of the telecommunication device based on a linear function of an exponential of a power level measuring a radio frequency (RF) power output by the telecommunications device utilized during operation one or more parameters associated with the remote device, and an amount of time that each power level is utilized during operation. The determined amount of power consumed by the telecommunications device, or a derivation thereof, may be wirelessly transmitted to a wirelessly connected device.

In one embodiment, a method comprises: identifying, by a root network device of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) in a low power and lossy network, a child network device in the DAG, including identifying a first rank associated with the child network device; allocating, by the root network device, an allocated rank for the child network device, the allocated rank different from the first rank; and outputting, by the root network device, a message to the child network device specifying the allocated rank, the message causing the child network device to implement the allocated rank in the DAG, including causing the child network device to generate and output a Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph (DODAG) information object (DIO) message specifying the child network device is using the allocated rank.

An information processing apparatus that suppresses a power consumption problem in a relay terminal includes a first controller that controls an IoT device to perform multihop routing via at least one relay on an upload of data from the IoT device to a base station, and a second controller that controls the base station to use, on a down-link from the base station to the IoT device, a route different from a route that uses at least one relay.

A first network device wirelessly transmits announcement messages in quick succession over multiple channels that represent normal operating channels of other network devices. The other network devices receive one of the announcement messages over their respective operating channels, and then send a message to one or more servers indicating that one of the announcement messages has been received. Various parameters and information related to the received announcement message, such as RSSI, SNR, and the contents of the announcement message, are included in the message sent to the one or more servers by each of the other network devices. The one or more servers then incorporate information in the messages sent from the other network devices into a network connectivity graph or table.
