Wirelessly Communicating a Data File

摘要

A method begins by a dispersed storage (DS) processing module sending a plurality of undecodeable portions of a plurality of data files via a public wireless communication network to one or more targeted devices of a private wireless communication network. The method continues with the DS processing module sending data content indicators regarding the plurality of data files and in response to a selection of a data file of the plurality of data files based on a corresponding one of the data content indicators, sending, via the private wireless communication network, one or more encoded data slices of each of one or more sets of encoded data slices of the data file such that, for each of the one or more sets of encoded data slices, the one or more targeted devices obtains at least a decode threshold number of encoded data slices to decode the data file.

1. A method comprises:
sending a plurality of undecodeable portions of a plurality of data files via a public wireless communication network to one or more targeted devices of a private wireless communication network, wherein an undecodeable portion of a data file of the plurality of undecodeable portions represents one or more subsets of encoded data slices of one or more sets of encoded data slices and wherein the data file is encoded using a dispersed storage error coding function to produce the one or more sets of encoded data slices; sending a plurality of data content indicators regarding the plurality of data files; and in response to a selection of a data file of the plurality of data files based on a corresponding one of the plurality of data content indicators, sending, via the private wireless communication network, one or more additional encoded data slices of each of the one or more sets of encoded data slices such that, for each of the one or more sets of encoded data slices, the one or more targeted devices obtains at least a decode threshold number of encoded data slices to decode the data file.
