CONSTRUCTING A SELF-ORGANIZING MESH NETWORK USING 802.11AD TECHNOLOGY

摘要

A method includes receiving one or more node connections from a mesh network external to the data processing hardware. The mesh network includes a network of nodes each operative to transmit and/or receive directional beams containing packets of data. The method also includes identifying a route within the mesh network for providing a data packet from a source to a destination and determining schedule information associated with the identified route, the schedule information coordinating wireless communication between at least a first node and a second node along the route to transfer the data packet. The method also includes providing the schedule information to the first node and the second node.
