SATELLITE DATA TRANSMISSION CLUSTERING WITH DYNAMIC CLUSTERS

Abstract:

Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums A method for satellite communications. A computing device concurrently communicates with two or more satellites of a cluster of satellites in a satellite network. The clusters are dynamically adjusted to achieve a communication objective. This improves satellite communications by increasing that likelihood that the computing device will be in range of a satellite that is useful for achieving the communication objective.
