Abstract
A method for sending packet data is provided, which includes the following steps. Packet data from a source mobile station (MS) is received. The packet data includes an identity of a destination MS. A routing cache table is searched for a path to the destination MS. An interface is selected if the path to the destination MS is found. The packet data is forwarded through the selected interface according to the found path. Other two methods for sending packet data corresponding to the method for sending packet data as well as an MS and a base station (BS) corresponding to the method for sending packet data are provided. Therefore, link processing can be performed at the MS.
Claims11
A method for sending packet data, comprising:
- receiving packet data from a source mobile station (MS), wherein the packet data comprises an identity of a destination MS;
- searching a path to the destination MS in a routing cache table;
- selecting an interface if the path to the destination MS is found;
- and
- forwarding the packet data through the selected interface according to the found path.
A method for sending packet data, comprising:
- obtaining packet data that needs to be sent;
- determining whether an access status is direct access;
- if the access status is direct access, sending the packet data to a base station (BS);
- and
- if the access status is not direct access, selecting a cluster head from a cluster head table, and sending the packet data to the cluster head.
A mobile station (MS), comprising:
- a receiving unit, adapted to receive packet data from a source MS, wherein the packet data comprises an identity of a destination MS;
- a searching unit, adapted to search a path to the destination MS in a routing cache table according to the identity of the destination MS received by the receiving unit;
- a selecting unit, adapted to select an interface when the searching unit finds the path to the destination MS;
- and
- a sending unit, adapted to forward the packet data through the interface selected by the selecting unit according to the path to the destination MS found by the searching unit.
The MS according to any one of claims 10 to 12, wherein the selecting unit comprises:
- a comparing unit, adapted to compare resource information of a cell interface of the destination MS and resource information of an adhoc interface of the destination MS recorded in a virtual cluster table;
- and
- a processing unit, adapted to select the cell interface when the comparing unit determines that the resource information of the cell interface is better than the resource information of the adhoc interface, and select the adhoc interface when the comparing unit determines that the resource information of the adhoc interface is better than the resource information of the cell interface.
