A processor provides modulated data signals to the first and second transceivers for transmission and receives demodulated signals from the first and second transceiver. The processor is configured for policy-based multipath admission of requests for access to an IP-routing enabled overlay network. The processor includes an inverse mission planning system configured for predictive traffic load balancing of transmitted FSO signals and RF signals. The inverse mission planning system includes radio behavior models and aerial platform models, and is configured for geographic simulation and optimization of mission planning data based upon user-inputted mission-specific data.

Low latency wireless communications may be provided. A client device may be authorized for a first association in response to the client device making a first concurrent association request that may include a first Media Access Control (MAC) address. In response to authorizing the client device for the first association, an Endpoint Identifier (EID) associated with the client device may be registered with a first Routing Locator (RLOC) in a map server, the first RLOC being associated with the first MAC address. The client device may then be authorized for a second association in response to the client device making a second concurrent association request that includes a second MAC address. In response to authorizing the client device for the second association, the EID associated with the client device may be registered with a second RLOC in the map server, the second RLOC being associated with the second MAC address.

A system and method for efficient collection and distribution of mission-critical information (MCI) throughout a multi-node communication network is disclosed. In embodiments, the multi-node communication network may include a clusterhead node including a communication interface and a controller. In embodiments, the controller transmits an MCI request packet to neighbor nodes of its cluster. The controller receives MCI report packets from the neighbor nodes (or a subset thereof) throughout a first time interval. The controller rebroadcasts the MCI request packet to the neighbor nodes through increasingly shorter time intervals as MCI report packets continue to be transmitted in response. When the controller determines that no MCI report packets have been transmitted during the most recent time interval, the controller generates and transmits an MCI publish packet including the MCI information collected from each neighbor node.
