Like those earlier modes, packet was intended as a way to reliably transmit written information. Earlier modes were telegraphy ( Morse Code), teleprinter (Baudot) and facsimile.
Packet radio is the fourth major digital radio communications mode. It uses the same concepts of data transmission via Datagram that are fundamental to communications via the Internet, as opposed to the older techniques used by dedicated or switched circuits. Packet radio is a form of packet switching technology used to transmit digital data via radio or wireless communications links. Let’s pirate some intel from Wikipedia and take a closer look-see at these concepts and see where the work is being done along the way: The major basic building blocks of the end goal of the Interplanetary Internet will include the following concepts (to name only a few): We have already taken many of the initial baby-steps that will lead to the next ‘Leap of Mankind’ into tomorrow’s ‘taken-for-granted’ fundamental form of electronic communication. This situation is further complicated by an interruptable data stream demand vs supply phenomenon combined with the complexities of network packet routing and top to bottom encryption. Space based communication delays and interruptions will no doubt require simplex packet type burst transmissions, with cloud type way-stations/relay-stations, instead of an almost instantaneous duplex emulating transmission type now enjoyed in today’s version of the Internet. This new frontier demands a complex combination of skills we are only now conceiving and developing. But, and there are a lot of buts: Speed of light, transmission speeds vs distance delays, temporary net failures due to Cosmic events or man-made sabotage/interference problems, along with an unbreakable network routing/encryption schema now only existing in the vapor of the vapor. The future vision of communications goes to Space. Nice of them, eh? Little did DARPA dream of the extent the Internet would drill down to the basic fabric of the data-handling of everyone in the world. Then the technology and some early infrastructure was turned loose to the users of the world. What?įirstly let us not forget, the current Internet was conceived, designed and implemented by the US Military, and paid for by the US Taxpayers. The IPN is coming, due to the current work on the DTN being funded by DARPA and kicked in the ass by Homeland Security, augmented by work being done under the auspices of NASA. That’s right… the Interplanetary Internet! ‘Ha !’ you say? Think I’m blowing a little Vaporware vapor-trail up your butt? Swivel that chair back around and take notes. When you swivel your chair around and look out the window toward the horizon, what is next to Plunder? So you have plundered the High Seas of the Internet and the Ethernet?
