Abstract
A device, method, computer program product, and network subsystem are described for receiving wireless data via a node-speed-change-prediction-dependent signal route and relaying at least a portion of the wireless data.
Claims38
A network subsystem comprising:
- (a) means for receiving wireless data via a node-speed-change-prediction-dependent signal route, the means for receiving the wireless data including at least
- (1) means for receiving at least video data, a predictive indication of an intermediate node turning, and an estimate of a transmission time in the wireless data;
- (2) means for indicating a suitability of the intermediate node;
- (3) means for broadcasting a descriptor of the intermediate node to one or more nodes outside the node-speed-change-prediction-dependent signal route;
- and
- (4) means for displaying at least an indication of the wireless data within a stationary node along the node-speed-change-prediction-dependent signal route;
- and
- (b) means for relaying at least a portion of the wireless data.

A network subsystem comprising:
- (a) means for receiving wireless data via a node-speed-change-prediction-dependent signal route;
- and
- (b) means for relaying at least a portion of the wireless data, the means for relaying including at least
- (1) means for indicating a suitability of a stationary node and a type of the stationary node to a satellite;
- (2) means for identifying one or more other downstream node candidates to the satellite;
- routing at least a portion of the wireless data via the satellite;
- (3) means for including at least user identification data or a source position prediction in the portion of the wireless data;
- and
- (4) means for sending at least some meteorological or medical data in the wireless data along the signal route without awaiting an acknowledgment signal.

- and
- (b) means for relaying at least a portion of the wireless data, the means for relaying including at least
- (1) means for including at least meteorological or medical data in the wireless data;
- (2) means for sending one or more of payment-indicative data or user identification data of the wireless data along the node-speed-change-prediction-dependent signal route without awaiting an acknowledgment signal;
- and
- (3) means for identifying one or more downstream node candidates to a downstream node.
