Abstract

The Network Control Protocol (NCP) facilitates the configuration and rapid reconfiguration of mobile wireless beam-formed networks. It controls the operation of a network of omni-directional packet radios (orderwire) that overlays the mobile wireless network. Each network element in this network uses Global Positioning System (GPS) information to control a beamforming antenna subsystem which provides for spatial reuse. The GPS information is shared among the network elements over the orderwire and an optimal topology for the beam-formed links is determined.
