Mobile Mesh Networking
Mobile mesh networking is a way to implement wireless mesh networks using mesh routing protocols. Mobile Mesh devices have the capability of receiving and routing data. Data packets will be transmitted from device to device using several hops. A typical application is mobile video surveillance with real time video being relayed from a moving vehicle to stationary receivers along the road.
Alternatively, mobile mesh networking can refer to a citywide wireless mesh network’s ability to support mobile applications, as is the case with the City of London’s Wi-Fi mesh network. In this case a network of Wi-Fi mesh nodes installed throughout the City enables users to experience uninterrupted access to the internet via Wi-Fi enabled devices as they travel through the City. Data packets are not transmitted from device to device in this case, but between the device and the network nodes. Source: Wikipedia.org
