1. A radio communication system comprising a plurality of aerial nodes providing a radio route for transmitting data to a destination node via at least one of said aerial nodes, wherein each of a plurality of said aerial nodes includes:
at least one antenna for receiving and transmitting radio signals; and
coding/decoding circuitry for coding a packet of the data multiple times using respective different radio technologies for multiple transmissions of said coded data by one said antenna in said respective different radio technologies and decoding multiple transmissions of a coded packet of data received on one said antenna from another node and coded using respective different radio technologies, wherein any node receiving said multiple transmissions of a coded packet of data decodes the coded packet received in each transmission and reassembles the data packet from the multiple different transmissions.
