Abstract
Communication network architectures, systems and methods for supporting a network of mobile nodes. As a non-limiting example, various aspects of this disclosure provide communication network architectures, systems, and methods for supporting a dynamically configurable communication network comprising a complex array of both static and moving communication nodes (e.g., the Internet of moving things).
Claims21
1-26. (canceled)
A communication network node comprising:
- at least one module comprising a processing circuit and a memory and being operable to, at least:
- transmit a beacon message in accordance with a defined beaconing strategy;
- receive context information comprising one or both of:
- information identifying physical context, and information identifying communication condition context;
- analyze the received context information;
- redefine the beaconing strategy, based at least in part on the analyzed received context information;
- and
- transmit a beacon message in accordance with the redefined beaconing strategy.
