Research abstract
Utilizing spatial multiplexing and load-balancing, this proposal increases the capacity and resilience of the BFTN. The present design of the BFTN underutilizes the power of wireless networking of multiple transmitters and receivers to establish meshed high-bandwidth TCP/IP communications. This underutilization is a critical problem in an Anti-Access Area Denial (A2AD) or Satellite Communication (SATCOM) denied scenario. This proposal increases the capacity and resilience of the BFTN utilizing spatial multiplexing and load-balancing to maximize the effectiveness of the wireless mesh.
