Directional Cross-Layer Networking Solution

Currently networks are not taking advantage of the inherent benefits of high multi-beam directional networking. For example, the current MADL implementation simply daisy chains the nodes in the network creating multiple single points of network failure (of course retaining self-healing properties.) The Fuse Directional Cross-Layer Networking Solution (DCLNS) optimized architecture features a robust multilink network resulting in hitless C2 and ISR data transfer.The Fuse networking device can host DCLNS which includes Cisco routing software to maintain Navy network compatibility and maximize MANET along with novel MAC layer algorithms, Directional MAC with Assist (DMAC-A), and beam control and scheduling software.
