Abstract

A method manages substantially continuous delivery of a data stream to a mobile communications device through sequential access thereby to respective receivers from a networked arrangement of wireless transceivers at known locations. A current location and velocity of the mobile communications device is determined. Based on a determined current location and velocity of the mobile communications device, a prediction for a next wireless transceiver to be accessed is generated, and a portion of the data stream is pre-cached at a predicted next wireless transceiver.
