For the maritime wireless communication environment, ships are equipped with and deployed wireless mesh nodes, enabling the rapid establishment of a highly reliable, highly mobile, robust, and interference-resistant broadband wireless network with beyond-line-of-sight transmission capabilities. This ensures flexible networking and multi-hop transmission among ships within the fleet, providing users with secure, reliable, stable, and timely multimedia transmission services including voice, data, and video.
The system supports dynamic networking during fleet navigation. Network topology changes rapidly with fleet shifts without disrupting wireless communication. Through a self-organizing multi-hop wireless network, nodes coordinate the entire fleet's operations, promptly reporting and transmitting information to each other, and exchanging information among themselves. Simultaneously, airborne nodes, acting as mobile high-altitude coverage enhancers, further expand network coverage and operational radius, providing nodes with more comprehensive information. Furthermore, nodes communicate with remote command centers via a mobile satellite communication system.
The link transmission self-awareness fully guarantees the continuity and smoothness of transmission services, the load balancing effectively improves the communication efficiency of the ship formation's wireless network, the anti-interference capability greatly enhances the electromagnetic countermeasure capability of the formation at sea, and the survivability ensures that the wireless network has a tenacious vitality. The failure of any single node in the network will not affect the operation of the entire formation network, making it an "unbreakable maritime mobile network".
