Self-optimizing fabric architecture and self-assembling network

Abstract:

A node in a self-assembling network includes one or more radios connected to any of other nodes in the self-assembling network and user equipment, wherein at least one of the node and the other nodes is connected to a fiber or satellite for backhaul; and one or more processors and memory storing control software, wherein the control software is executed in a distributed manner with the other nodes, and wherein the control software is configured to monitor any of positions of the nodes, monitor bandwidth of user equipment connected to any of the nodes, and monitor quality of service requirement of the user equipment, and cause performance of adjustments to the nodes based on any of the monitored positions, the monitored bandwidth, and the monitored quality of service.
