Abstract

See full text

A method includes receiving at least a first node connection from a network external to the data processing hardware. The network includes a network of nodes each operative to transmit and/or receive directional beams containing packets of data. The method also includes identifying an open first communication link between a first node and a second node of the network and determining a first recommended set of beam vectors to constrain a first scanning range of the first node when initiating beam forming with the second node. The method also includes transmitting the first recommended set of beam vectors to the first node. The first recommended set of beam vectors cause the first node to execute beam forming training with the second node using the first recommended set of beam vectors to establish the first communication link with the second node.
