PATH CONTROL DEVICE, PATH CONTROL SYSTEM, PATH CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A path control device for a plurality of wireless links connecting a plurality of communication devices, the path control device comprising:
- a information management unit that stores a correlation of communication quality between the plurality of wireless links; and
a path selecting unit that selects a path of a flow using the correlation of communication quality between the plurality of wireless links,wherein the path selectins unit selects a redundant path as the path of the flow from among wireless links having a certain correlation or lower with a wireless link constituting a normal path.

Abstract
Provided are a path control device and a path control method for maintaining a constant communication quality between wireless links in a network including a plurality of wireless links with varying transmission rates. A path control device 900 for a plurality of wireless links connecting a plurality of communication devices includes an information management unit 901 that stores a correlation of communication quality between the wireless links; and a path selecting unit 902 that selects a path of a flow by using the correlation of communication quality between the wireless links. The path selecting unit 902 selects a path using the correlation of communication quality between the wireless links, thereby maintaining the communication quality of the entire path constant.
