Claim 10:
11. A computer-implemented method for configuring a software-defined radio system, the method comprising:
determining a location of a connected device within a specific region in response to receiving a wireless signature from the connected device, where the location of the connected device is associated with a route in a topology of routes linked to a coverage area of the specific region;
sending information pertaining to the location of the connected device over a first network providing coverage for a first portion of the specific region;
configuring a first antenna serving the first network, coupled to a radio, to send and receive data over a first wireless link to the connected device in response to the connected device being within the specific region;
identifying a second network providing coverage for a second portion of the specific region in response to detecting movement by the connected device along the route to a second location, where the second portion is in proximity to the second location of the connected device while the connected device remains in the first portion of the specific region;
sending information related to the second location of the connected device to a server via the first antenna over the first wireless link;
configuring a second antenna serving the second network to send and receive data over a second wireless link to the connected device at the second location; and
sending data over the second network to the connected device, wherein the connected device receives configuration data from both the first antenna and the second antenna.
