Abstract
According to an embodiment of the invention, a method of dynamically creating a network of a plurality of nodes operable to communicate with objects in operating sectors comprises establishing a first communication link between a first node and a second node of the plurality of nodes. The first communication link is established upon determining that the first communication link between the respective ones of the plurality of nodes would not cross an existing communication link in the network of the plurality of nodes between two of the plurality of nodes or upon determining that the first communication link would be shorter than any existing communication link in the network of the nodes between two of the plurality of nodes that the first communication link would cross. The first communication link has a first communicative line of sight between the first node and the second node.
