Patent ID: 10142131

Abstract:
The present disclosure includes embodiments of a two-way wireless data communication system and associated methods. An embodiment of a system can include a network operations center (NOC), a plurality of fixed-location receive base stations (RBS) in communications with the NOC, and an intelligent shortwave communication network in communications with the NOC and the plurality of RBS and including a plurality of remote intelligent transceiver units (ITU). In an embodiment, for example, the NOC can be operative to a) compute rapidly a protocol under which nationwide communications is to be completed via coordinated operations of the linked ITU and RBS, b) determine propagating and clear electromagnetic wavelengths over an entire 3 MHz to 30 MHz shortwave band, and c) send a continuous stream of data indicating times and frequencies at which remote units can rapidly and efficiently transmit data and at which antenna sites can reliably and efficiently receive that data.
