Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods for a robotic mobile perimeter and telecommunication network. One or more stationary ground units are associated with a perimeter protected entity and comprise a broadband cellular network core for providing a private telecommunication network, and secondary transceivers for providing a second telecommunication network. Mobile robotic units comprise a broadband cellular network node for extending the private telecommunication network, secondary transceivers, a plurality of sensors, a locomotion device, and a controller. The mobile robotic units simultaneously create a dynamically responsive perimeter around the perimeter protected entity and a movable extension of the private telecommunication network, wherein the controllers generate locomotion control signals to cause least a portion of the plurality of mobile robotic units to reposition themselves within the surrounding environment and provide continuous coverage from the private telecommunication network to the perimeter protected entity as one or more locations of the perimeter protected entity change.
