Method for wireless connectivity continuity and quality

Abstract

Configurations are described for maintaining a continuity and quality of wireless signal connection between a mobile device and systems accessible through the internet. In particular, configurations are disclosed to address the challenge of a mobile device that moves through a physical environment wherein the best wireless connectivity performance is achieved by switching between available connection sources and constantly evaluating a primary connection with other available connections that may be switched in to become a new primary connection. The mobile device may be self-propelled or carried by some other mobilizing means.

1 . A method for maintaining wireless connectivity between a mobile controller and a remote controller, comprising:
 a. providing first and second wireless adaptors operatively coupled to the mobile controller and configured to operate independently such that one may be scanning for a connection between the mobile controller and the remote controller while the other retains a connection between the mobile controller and the remote controller;   b. operating the wireless adaptors to automatically:
 a. scan to find available wireless access points; 
 b. connect to the remote controller through a first wireless access point with the first wireless adaptor and evaluate the connectivity of the connection; 
 c. while retaining connectivity with the remote controller through the first wireless adaptor, connect to the remote controller through a second wireless access point with the second wireless adaptor and evaluate the connectivity of the connection; 
 d. compare the evaluated connectivities of the first and second wireless adaptors to find a highest evaluated connection and a lowest evaluated connection; and 
 e. maintain connectivity between the mobile controller and remote controller through the highest evaluated connection.
