1. A computer-accessible medium having processor-executable instructions for wireless communication from a beacon to a network base station receiver, the processor-executable instructions capable of directing a processor to perform:
receiving GNSS information from a GNSS receiver; calculating a geographic location estimate from the GNSS information, wherein the geographic location estimate is selected from a group of geographic location estimations in a geographical coordinate system consisting of a stationary 2-dimensional geographic location, a stationary 3-dimensional geographic location, a kinematic 2-dimensional geographic location and a kinematic 3-dimensional geographic location; calculating a velocity and a direction of travel from the GNSS information; transmitting a here-i-am (HIA) transmission on a first radio frequency channel of 12 radio frequency channels of a first pseudo-random frequency hopping pattern, the HIA transmission including:
identification of a second radio frequency channel of 42 radio frequency channels;wherein the HIA transmission is a short transmission that does not include a serial number of the beacon; and transmitting a registration (REG) transmission that is synchronized to the HIA transmission on the pseudo-random frequency hopping pattern and in reference to a timing of the pseudo-random frequency hopping pattern, the REG transmission including the geographic location, the velocity and the direction of travel, including the serial number of the beacon, including information representative of the one of the plurality of the pseudo-random frequency hopping patterns and including the information representative of the timing of the frequency hopping patterns, wherein the 12 radio frequency channels and the 42 radio frequency channels are mutually exclusive and have no radio frequency channels in common between the 12 radio frequency channels and the 42 radio frequency channels. |
