Abstract
A wireless network system may include a source node having a first source wireless interface and a second source wireless interface, wherein the source node initiates a data transmission via the first source wireless interface. The wireless network system may also include a repeater node having a first and second repeater wireless interfaces, wherein the repeater node is configured to receive the data transmission on the first or second repeater wireless interface and to repeat the data transmission on the other of the first or second repeater wireless interface. The wireless network system also includes a destination node having first and second destination wireless interfaces, wherein the destination node is configured to receive the data transmission on the first or second destination wireless interface. A wireless network system may also include a satellite-based, wireless network system, including an earth station server, a satellite client, and a terrestrial client.
