REAL-TIME SCALABLE WIRELESS SWITCHING NETWORK
A real-time scalable wireless switching network is described herein. In one embodiment, an exemplary network architecture includes, but is not limited to, a first access point coupled to a wired network, where the first access point is capable of communicating with one or more mobile nodes over a wireless network. The exemplary network architecture further includes a first node coupled to the wired network to communicate with the first access point over the wired network, where the first node includes a wireless network interface to wirelessly communicate with at least one of the first access point and the one or more mobile nodes over the wireless network. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
