Phased array radio frequency network for mobile communication

A system comprising:

• a first antenna (132A) configured to receive a first phased array antenna beam (134B) comprising a radio frequency “RF” modulated data packet (800), wherein the RF modulated data packet comprises a header (802) and payload data (804);
• a demodulator circuit (335) configured to demodulate the header of the RF modulated data packet, while maintaining the payload data in RF modulated format, to identify route information (802K);
• and
• a second antenna (132B) configured to transmit a second phased array antenna beam (134C) comprising the RF modulated data packet in accordance with the route information.

A method comprising:

• generating (1015), by a source device (140A), a data packet (800) comprising a header (802) and payload data (804), wherein the header identifies the source device and a destination device (140B), wherein the payload data comprises data to be transmitted from the source device to the destination device over a phased array communication network (100);
• modulating (1015), by the source device, the data packet to provide a radio frequency “RF” modulated data packet;
• and
• transmitting (1015), by the source device, a phased array antenna beam (134A) comprising the RF modulated data packet to an access node (130A) of the phased array communication network.

A device comprising:

• a memory (420) configured to store a plurality of executable instructions;
• a processor (410) configured to execute the instructions to generate a data packet (800) comprising a header (802) and payload data (804), wherein the header identifies the device (140A) and a destination device (140B), wherein the payload data comprises data to be transmitted from the device to the destination device over a phased array communication network (100);
• a modulator circuit (480) configured to radio frequency “RF” modulate the data packet;
• and
• an antenna (460) configured to transmit a phased array antenna beam (134A) comprising the RF modulated data packet to an access node (130A) of the phased array communication network.

A method comprising:

• receiving (1005), at a control server (150), a request to access (802F) a phased array communication network (100);
• allocating (1010), by the control server, a communication channel (233);
• identifying (1010), by the control server, route information (806F) associated with the communication channel;
• and
• transmitting (1010), by the control server to an access node (130) of the phased array communication network, a response (806I) to the request, wherein the response identifies the communication channel and the route information.

A control server comprising:

• a memory (520) configured to store a plurality of executable instructions;
• and
• a processor (510) configured to execute the instructions to:
• process a request to access (802F) a phased array communication network (100);
• allocate a communication channel (233);
• identify route information (806F) associated with the communication channel;
• and
• transmit to an access node (130) of the phased array communication network, a response (806I) to the request, wherein the response identifies the communication channel and the route information.
