A method and devices are described for wirelessly uploading and
downloading data to and from a mobile vehicular platform while within
range of a coordinated network of base stations that monitor the location
of the vehicle and optimize data throughput using any combination of
diversity and beam forming adaptive antenna techniques while the vehicle
is on the ground or additionally in the case of aircraft, not only on the
ground, but also during take-off, climb, en-route, holding, on-approach,
touchdown and rollout. Particularly, in describing this art, the intent
is to address the aspects of a quantifiable vehicle environment, where
the vehicle's behavior is predictable, such as in train routes, bus
routes, ship dockings and aircraft flight plans.
