System and method of utilizing an interference mitigating protocol in mesh networks

A system and method for implementing a dynamic interference mitigating protocol in a mesh network is described. The system includes a first of a plurality of nodes in a mesh network to function as an originator station, a second of the plurality of nodes in the mesh network to function as a target station and a third of the plurality of nodes in the mesh network to function as a coordinating node. A setup message may be transmitted across the plurality of nodes to determine or implement an assigned path between the originator station and the target station. All nodes in the plurality of nodes may be reactivated after the high density data packets are received at the target station.
