EFFICIENT CONNECTION ARRANGEMENTS FOR MULTIHOP NETWORKS Abstract This invention is a Local Area Network (LAN) which comprises a plurality of NIU's, each arranged to transmit on a separate set of frequencies and to receive on a separate set of frequencies. During operation, a data packet is multihopped from a source NIU, through intermediate NIUs, until reaching an NIU which can transmit a frequency which the destination NIU is capable of receiving. The packet is then forwarded to the destination NIU. The source NIU may also send a control packet and cause the destination NIU to adjust its receive frequency so that subsequent packets may be transmitted directly to the receiving NIU. In an alternative embodiment, the multihopping may be accomplished using specialized headnode modems.
