Abstract: This disclosure provides systems and methods for routing and topology management of computer networks with steerable beam antennas. A network controller can generate an input graph for a first time period. The input graph can have a plurality of vertices each representing a respective moving node and a plurality of edges each representing a possible link between a pair of moving nodes. The input graph also can include corresponding location information for each of the moving nodes during the first time period. A solver module can receive information corresponding to the input graph, a maximum degree for each vertex in the input graph, and a set of provisioned network flows. The solver module can determine a subgraph representing a network topology based on the input graph, the maximum degree for each vertex in the input graph, and the set of provisioned network flows, such that a number of edges associated with each vertex in the subgraph does not exceed the maximum degree for each vertex.

Abstract: Due to interference that typically occurs in the ISM band, it may be necessary for one or more network devices to switch to an alternative channel. A list of one or more alternate network channels may be generated by a coordinating/gateway device based on the energy level and a distance from a primary network channel. The alternate network channel list may be distributed to neighbor devices and, in the event of interference, link loss, and/or a channel switch notification, the neighbor devices may automatically switch to the first alternate network channel in the list.
