SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING MULTIPLE ROVING ASSETS WITH MULTIPLE DIRECTIONAL BROADBAND ANTENNA SYSTEMS

摘要

A communications system is provided comprising a first alignment system coupled to a first antenna and configured to establish a communications link with a first communication source; a second alignment system coupled to a second antenna and configured to establish a communications link with a second communication source. The system further includes a controller coupled to the first alignment system and the second alignment system, the controller configured to provide at least one control signal to cause at least one of the first antenna to establish a communications link with the first communication source and the second antenna to establish a communications link with the second communication source. In one embodiment the first alignment system initiates an optimization sequence in response to the first antenna establishing a communications link with the first communications source and wherein the second alignment system initiates an optimization sequence in response to the second antenna establishing a communications link with the second communications source.

1. A communications system comprising:
a first alignment system supported by a first roving asset and coupled to a first antenna and a first controller, the first controller configured to provide at least one control signal to cause the first antenna to establish a first communications link with a first communication source; a second alignment system coupled to a second antenna and a second controller, the second controller configured to provide at least one control signal to cause the second antenna to cause the second antenna to establish a communications link with the second communication source; wherein the first alignment system initiates a first optimization sequence in response to the first antenna establishing the first communications link and wherein the second alignment system initiates a second optimization sequence in response to the second antenna establishing the second communications link, and wherein the first communication source corresponds to the second antenna and second communication source corresponds to the first antenna.
