MATLAB: Compare elements of the same array

adjacentarraydistance

I have a network with 10 nodes, each of which knows exactly the distance from other nodes. Suppose node 1 starts to transmit. All nodes at a distance greater than d from another node can transmit at the same time. Observing the adjacent array of node 1, we can see NODE(1).adj = [0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 0]. It means that node 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 are at a distance greater than d from node 1 (if the distance is greater than d the value is 1). We put these nodes in another array called CANDIDATES, so CANDIDATES = [2 3 4 6 8]. But node 2 and node 6 cannot transmit at the same time because their mutual distance is lower than d, as we can see by analyzing NODE(2).adj. My idea is: the first element of CANDIDATES transmit, in this case node 2, then the second element, node 3, controls its distance from the active node, node 2: if the distance between node 2 and node 3 is greater than d then node 3 can transmit; after that, the third element, node 4, controls its distance from all active nodes, node 2 and node 3: if the distance from both nodes is greater than d, node 4 can transmit at the same time. In the test I've made only node 1, 2 and 3 can transmit simultaneously. how can I make this comparison? here is the code I've written so far

end

for i=1:1:n
    for j=1:1:n
        if(i ~= j)
            distance = sqrt((NODE(i).xd - NODE(j).xd)^2+(NODE(i).yd - NODE(j).yd)^2);
            NODE(i).adj(1,j) = distance;
        end
    end
end
%pick a random destination (random number between o and n)
dst = floor((n+1)*rand(1));
%a random node begin transmissions
temp = ceil(n*rand);
NODE(temp).state(1,1) = 1;
NODE(temp).pkt(1,1) = 1;
NODE(temp).pkt(2,1) = dst;
for i=1:1:n
    if(NODE(temp).adj(1,i) > d)
        provvisorio(1,i) = i;
    else
        provvisorio(1,i) = 0;
    end
end
j = 1;
for i=1:1:n
    if(provvisorio(1,i) ~= 0)
        candidate(1,j) = provvisorio(1,i);
        j = j+1;
    end
end

n = 10;
xm = 40;
ym = 60;
ij = [randi(xm,n,1), randi(ym,n,1)];
d = bsxfun(@minus,ij,permute(ij,[3,2,1]));
dist1 = squeeze(bsxfun(@hypot,d(:,1,:),d(:,2,:)));
dist1(1:n+2:end) = inf;
out = find(all(dist1 > 30));
