Patent attributes
A routing establishing method for constructing a routing of a chain network including communication routers, each including a wired communication module, a wireless communication module, and a device configuration file. In a wired exploration procedure, exploration is performed by the source communication router through the wired communication module to obtain a wired communication status between the source and the destination communication routers. In a wireless exploration procedure, exploration is performed by the source communication router through the wireless communication module to obtain a wireless communication status between the source and the destination communication routers. In a routing decision procedure, next hop of the source communication router and whether the transmission routing is through the wired or the wireless communication module are determined and set according to the wired and the wireless communication status. The device configuration file includes device numbers related to relative positions of the communication routers.
