[Tinyos-devel] retransmissions in networking protocols

Hi guys in the net group,

looks like MultihopLqi and Ctp all do retransmissions on the network
level if the MAC reports a transmission failure. So whenever the MAC did
not receive an ACK the packet is duplicated. This happens quite often in
our testbed, because the TX power of the nodes seems to have a
siginficant variance.

What is your experience, should we do something about it?

Best, Andreas
