The document describes a robust and trusted routing scheme (RTS) for IoT-based mobile wireless mesh networks. The RTS aims to improve network reliability and security. It consists of two main techniques: (1) a network infrastructure using multi-hop connectivity between mesh clients, routers and gateways; and (2) secure and trusted data routing between devices using RSA cryptography with public/private keys. The RTS allows for self-configuration, coverage expansion, and recovery from failures while preventing various security attacks.
