A method is proposed for adapting transmissions in a network so that multi-hop paths form to link nodes emitting compatible signal types. The method uses a simple, local adaptation of transmission weights at each node depending only on the signals passing through the node. This method is applicable for autonomous organization of functions in ad-hoc distributed systems mediated by communication.
