US Patent 10447378 Wireless mesh network for broadband connectivity

Network hardware devices organized in a wireless mesh network (WMN) in which a home access node (HAN) device that includes a first set of radios, each of the first set of radios being coupled to a beam-steering antenna and each of the first set of radios establishing a first point-to-point (PtP) wireless connection over which the HAN relay device communicates with a second HAN relay device in a first sub-mesh network of HAN relay devices. The HAN device also includes a second set of radios, each of the second set of radios being coupled to a beam-steering antenna and each of the second set of radios establishing a second PtP wireless connection over which the HAN relay device communicates with at least one of a plurality of HAN devices in a second sub-mesh network in the WMN.
