Abstract

A content caching process involves a first moving vessel (MCP) communicating a content request to a satellite. A central bandwidth manager (CBM) receives the content request from the satellite and selects one or both of a port and a second MCP to cache the content specified in the request. The first MCP downloads the content from the second MCP or port using a directed wireless link, upon obtaining proximity with the port or second MCP.
