A hybrid satellite-mesh network including a ground segment, a mobile segment and a satellite segment provides high bandwidth communication between mobile platforms and the Internet. The satellite segment is used only when mesh network communication links between mobile segment nodes and ground segment nodes are unavailable. Mobile segment nodes can function in either an access terminal mode or an access point mode to communicate with other mobile segment nodes according to a routing algorithm in a mesh portion of the network. Mobile segment nodes employ adaptive frequency reuse, link level date rate adaptation, link level power control and adaptive beam forming antennas. |
