1. A method of establishing an ad hoc cellular network having an ad hoc cellular base station comprising the steps of:

  • a. analyzing a speed to determine a mobility state of an ad hoc cellular base station;

    b. querying a local or remote cache stored in a computing server to determine a backhaul configuration or an access configuration for the ad hoc cellular base station, wherein the mobility state is a factor used to determine the backhaul configuration or the access configuration;

    c. receiving the backhaul configuration or the access configuration for the ad hoc cellular base station from the local or remote cache;

    d. evaluating an operational parameter of a neighboring cellular base station;

    e. determining if the access configuration or backhaul configuration should be updated based on the operational parameter; and

    f. transmitting or receiving an access signal or a backhaul signal using the access configuration or the backhaul configuration.
