1. A wireless network managing method of a mesh node, comprising:
- sensing a target node within a transmission range of the mesh node;
selecting an agent node having the target node and the mesh node as neighboring nodes; and
forming a link with the target node through the agent node.

Abstract
If a target node that enters into a transmission range is sensed, a mesh node of a wireless communication system selects an agent node having itself and a target node as a neighboring node among a plurality of neighboring nodes to form a link with the target node through the agent node. Also, the mesh node deletes the formed link if a target node that is out of a transmission range among a plurality of neighboring nodes is sensed, and forms a substitution path for at least a portion among an entire path of a connection including the deleted link.

13. A wireless network managing apparatus of a mesh node, comprising:
-
a neighboring node managing unit managing a plurality of neighboring nodes positioned inside a transmission range of the mesh node based on a message transmitted from a plurality of neighboring nodes, if a target node newly enters into the transmission range, selecting an agent node having the target node and the mesh node as a neighboring node among a plurality of neighboring nodes, and forming a link with the target node through the agent node; and a transmitting/receiving unit receiving a message from a plurality of neighboring nodes and transmitting the message to the neighboring node managing unit. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
