Systems and methods for a mobile access point wireless network system

A wireless network system comprising:

• an actuator;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive a request to connect to a mobile access point from a wireless device;
• receiving location data from the wireless device corresponding to a location of the wireless device;
• and
• until a line of sight condition is determined to be one of a clear line of sight condition or an improved line of sight condition, to repeat a cycle of:
• receiving connectivity data between the wireless device and the mobile access point;
• determining the line of sight condition based at least in part on the connectivity data;
• and
• outputting a control signal to the actuator;
• wherein:
• if in a first cycle:
• the determined line of sight condition is the clear line of sight condition between the wireless device and the mobile access point, wherein the clear line of sight condition is when the line of sight between the wireless device and the mobile access point contains no obstacles, then the control signal controls the actuator to maintain the location of the mobile access point;
• or
• if the line of sight contains one or more obstacles, then the control signal controls the actuator to move the location of the mobile access point and repeat the cycle;
• if in a second or subsequent cycle:
• the determined line of sight condition is the clear line of sight condition, then the control signal controls the actuator to maintain the location of a moved mobile access point;
• or
• if the line of sight condition between the wireless device and the moved mobile access point is an improved line of sight condition over the line of sight condition between the wireless device and a prior location of the moved mobile access point, then the control signal controls the actuator to maintain the location of the moved mobile access point;
• or
• if the determined line of sight condition is not the improved line of sight condition, then the control signal controls the actuator to move the location of the mobile access point to a location different from any prior location of the mobile access point and repeat the cycle;
• and
• the controller is further configured to:
• create, through machine learning, a map of one or more obstacles within a space based at least in part on one or more determined line of sight conditions made by the controller;
• and
• use the map to identify one or more locations of the moved mobile access point possessing the improved line of sight condition.

A controller in wired or wireless communication with an actuator, the controller configured to move a mobile access point by outputting one or more control signals to the actuator, the controller comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to cause the controller to:
• receive requests from a plurality of wireless devices to connect to the mobile access point;
• receive location data from each of the plurality of wireless devices;
• and
• until a set of line of sight conditions is determined to be an optimal set of line of sight conditions, repeat a cycle of:
• receiving connectivity data between the mobile access point and each of the plurality of wireless devices
• determining the set of line of sight conditions based at least in part on the connectivity data between the mobile access point and each of the plurality of wireless devices;
• and
• outputting a control signal to the actuator
• wherein:
• if the determined set of line of sight conditions is the optimal set of line of sight conditions, wherein each line of sight between each wireless device and the mobile access point contains no obstacles, then the instructions, when executed by the processor, are further configured to cause the controller to output the control signal to control the actuator to maintain the location of the mobile access point;
• or
• if one or more lines of sight between each wireless device and the mobile access point contains one or more obstacles, then the instructions, when executed by the processor, are further configured to cause the controller to output the control signal to control the actuator to move the location of the mobile access point to a location different from any prior location of the mobile access point and repeat the cycle;
• and
• the instructions, when executed by the processor, are further configured to cause the controller to:
• create, through machine learning, a map of one or more obstacles within a space based at least in part on the determined set of line of sight conditions made by the controller;
• and
• use the map to identify one or more locations of the moved mobile access point possessing the optimal set of line of sight conditions.
