Dynamic wireless aerial mesh network
First Claim
1. A non-transient computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer executable instructions, execution of which by a processing device causes the processing device to perform operations for a first aerial node (AN) of a first dynamic wireless aerial mesh network, the operations comprising:
- receiving a wireless communication associated with a first agency;
transmitting the wireless communication to an end unit radio transceiver associated with the first agency,wherein the transmitting is via the first AN of two or more ANs of the first dynamic wireless aerial mesh network that provides persistent wide area communications service;
detecting an event; and
adjusting a flight pattern of the first AN based on changes to the first dynamic wireless aerial mesh network, wherein the changes are based on the event detected.

Abstract
Embodiments include a dynamic wireless aerial mesh network having aerial nodes that provides real-time persistent wide area communications service to provide communications in response to an incident. Typically, the service area is a wide area that is physically inaccessible via ground transportation. In addition, embodiments include the formation of a decentralized mesh supernetwork comprising two or more dynamic wireless aerial mesh networks where each dynamic wireless aerial mesh network is owned by a different agency (e.g., a secure community). A member of a first dynamic wireless aerial mesh network may send a request to a member of a second dynamic wireless aerial mesh network for the first dynamic wireless aerial mesh network to join the second dynamic wireless aerial mesh network to form a mesh supernetwork, and receive an acceptance from the member of the second dynamic wireless aerial mesh network.
