Re: [Tinyos-help] CTP parent switching

Now, would it be an idea to base this threshold on a percentage of the path ETX? For example, at 20%, a node with a path ETX of 2 would replace its parent by one that offers a path ETX of 1.6, whereas a node that has a path ETX of 10 would only switch if the new path has an ETX of 8 or

Following up on my message about the link estimator, I was also wondering about CTP's parent switching threshold. As is, CTP will switch parents if the new parent offers a path ETX that is 1.5 hops better than its current parent, if I am not mistaken. Now, this is set fairly conservatively,
