Wireless access infrastructures expansions through Opportunistic Networks of Moving Access Points

Abstract

The concept of this proposal is to design, develop and validate mechanisms for deciding on the creation and set-up of opportunistic networks based on moving access points (MAPs) for mobile client nodes. Mobile client nodes can be smart/connected cars in civilian use cases, or any kind of operational vehicles and/or robots/drones in military cases. Opportunistic networks are temporary, coordinated extensions of the infrastructure. They are dynamically created, in places and at the time they are needed and can comprise network elements of the total infrastructure.
