Abstract
The disclosed invention provides system and method for multi-path mesh network communications. The network system utilizes multiple communication paths and linearly encoded and disassembled packets through mathematical coding techniques that respectively travel the communication paths. The system includes an encoder, a transmitter, a decoder and a receiver. The encoder receives data from an external source and linearly encodes and simultaneously disassembles the data to generate copackets. None of the individual copackets contain decodable information of the data. The transmitter is coupled to the multiple communication paths and respectively transmits the copackets through different communication paths. The receiver receives the copackets transmitted through the communication paths. The decoder decodes available copackets and reassembles the data from the available copackets if a number of the available copackets are no less than a mathematically calculated number. The reassembled data has the complete information of the data originally transmitted.
