Abstract

This disclosure describes techniques for creating a hybrid mesh of unlicensed wireless frequency bands between two or more vehicles communicating using an unlicensed wireless frequency band, and a massive MIMO base station communicating with the two or more vehicles using a licensed wireless frequency band. The hybrid mesh can be used to upload and download data from a vehicle in motion. The hybrid mesh can be formed via V2V connections between the vehicle and nearby vehicles. In other words, if a vehicle moves into a region outside the operating boundary of a 5G-NR massive MIMO base-station node, the vehicle can interact with other vehicles to generate a data pipeline using the unlicensed wireless frequency band from the vehicle the nearby vehicle, and using the licensed wireless frequency band from the nearby vehicle to the nearest, massive MIMO base station.
