Many thanks for your reply.
That was exactly what I was looking for.
Why don't you add a pointer in batman-adv doc page?
It could be useful to many I think, even if it is pre-alpha :)

The metric used by batman-adv is called TQ (Transmission Quality) and
expresses the sending link quality from the current node all the way down to
the destination.

There is a document explaining the main ideas behind the algorithm used by
batman-adv that you can download here:
