Systems and methods for adjusting a wireless network based on transaction data
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of adjusting a wireless network, the method comprising the following operations performed by at least one processor associated with a manager of the wireless network:
- detecting a transaction on the wireless network involving at least one wireless device;
recording transaction data including a total number of network hops involved in the transaction;
analyzing the recorded transaction data to determine a maximum span of the wireless network and a distribution pattern of the transaction;
creating a distribution plan for the wireless network based on the determined maximum span and distribution pattern of the transaction; and
adjusting the wireless network based on the distribution plan to thereby optimize transactions on the wireless network.

Abstract
A distribution of a content selection being distributed throughout a wireless mesh network may be tracked. A wireless device in the wireless mesh network enables the content selection to be exchanged. Wireless devices then exchange the content, and a network topology is recorded in response. Finally, the network topology is reported to a reporting agent.

10. A tangibly embodied non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor associated with a manager of the wireless network, cause the at least one processor to perform a method for adjusting a wireless network, the method comprising:
-
receiving recorded transaction data including a total number of network hops involved in the transaction; analyzing the recorded transaction data to determine a maximum span of the wireless network and a distribution pattern of the transaction; creating a distribution plan for the wireless network based on the determined maximum span and distribution pattern of the transaction; and adjusting the wireless network based on the distribution plan to thereby optimize transactions on the wireless network. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. An apparatus associated with a manager of a wireless network, the apparatus comprising:
-
a storage medium storing instructions; and at least one processor executing the stored instructions to; receive recorded transaction data including a total number of network hops involved in a transaction on the wireless network involving at least one wireless device; analyze the recorded transaction data to determine a maximum span of the wireless network and a distribution pattern of the transaction; create a distribution plan for the wireless network based on the determined maximum span and distribution pattern of the transaction; and adjust the wireless network based on the distribution plan to thereby optimize transactions on the wireless network. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
