OPTICAL ROUTING DEVICE FOR ULTRA-FLEXIBLE AND ULTRA-RELIABLE LASER BEAM BASED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

A first optical routing device that includes a mounting component, a memory configured to store optical path options, where the optical path options are different fall-back laser-link options available to the first optical routing device to establish a laser beam connectivity, and an optical routing component attached to the mounting component. The mounting component includes a rechargeable battery to power operations of the first optical routing device and a processor that communicates over-the-air with a master communication device or one or more service communication devices via RF supervisory links, receives an instruction via the one or more RF supervisory links to control a movement of the mounting component along with the optical routing component, and performs a range measurement to compute a distance between the first optical routing device and an optical node.
