Hi guys

So what is one-hop communication? Does it mean the data go through only one hop like from 2 - 1 - M? Or just 1 - M?

Thanks guys!

PS: in wireless device
PS2: it's in this document, page 5.

Hi, I have read that, but I am still not sure which one of the following is a hop in networking:

• M <---> 1, or
• M <---> 1 <---> 2

Which one is a hop?

Thanks

 

Assuming M and 2 are computers, and 1 is a router, then M<-->1<-->2 would be one hop. But I don't know what your diagram is supposed to mean, so I might be mis-interpreting it.

 

1-would be the main node center
2-this would be the relay where the "hop" occurs-sometime this is called a relay station.
