Abstract

Embodiments described herein are directed to creating a cognitive heterogeneous ad hoc mesh network via generation and utilization of a participant table. Participant object transmit notification signals to inform other participants objects in line-of-sight of their position and movement. Mobile participants that receive these notification signals update a local version of the participant table. If the receiving mobile participant is responsible for forwarding participant table updates to the sending mobile participant, then the receiving mobile participant includes the received notification signal with the transmission of its next notification signal to propagate the participant table update to a stationary participant. The stationary participant can then transmit participant table updates to other mobile participants. If a stationary participant is not accessible or not functioning, the participants continue to propagate participant table changes when a responsible forwarding participant changes.
