Abstract

A unifying network model with a structure and architecture configured to address security, interoperability, mobility, and resource management, including priority and quality of services is provided. The network of the network model is structured as a hierarchical mesh network, with dynamically generated routing tables. The configuration of the network model optimizes routing and distributes communication load. Every device on the network is capable of being both an endpoint and a forwarder of communications. The network model may include underlying networks that are represented with one of two models, the link model or the star model. The nodes are organized in a hierarchical relationship structure to optimizes throughput. The model may include a cryptographic method of dynamically assigning local network addresses.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit of provisional U.S. Patent Application No. 60 / 442,328, filed Jan. 24, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND [0002] Today's communications requirements have outpaced the capabilities of current systems. There is a need for better security in both voice and data communications and an increased need to protect transmission streams. The same is true for radio mesh networks, which are made possible through advancements in radio technology, such as phased array antennas and consumer and enterprise adoption of wireless 802.11 access points. Such decentralized public mesh networks hinge on the ability for non-trusting parties to share and control network resources without the need for central administration. [0003] While these heightened requirements coupled with the need for improved availability and reliability have brought network interoperability and unification to the...
