Application: Offline mesh messaging network with bluetooth broadcasting (Patent ID: US20230328621A1)
The patent filed by Meta Platforms Inc. discloses methods, systems, and storage media for relaying messages through an offline mesh network. The implementation involves changing device names within a network to relay messages, generating encoded messages at an initial node with payload and account identifiers for the initial and destination nodes, relaying the encoded message through intermediary nodes, and delivering the message to the destination node based on device name analysis. The system utilizes wireless devices with Bluetooth connectivity within a certain range to relay messages, with the ability to encrypt and decrypt payloads at the respective nodes.
The computer-implemented method, system, and storage medium described in the patent focus on efficiently relaying messages through an offline mesh network using intermediary nodes and Bluetooth technology. The nodes, which are wireless devices, operate within a specific range, enabling the relay of messages without the need for a consistent forward and return path. The messages contain payloads and account identifiers for secure communication, with encryption and decryption processes in place. Overall, the patent aims to facilitate communication in scenarios where traditional network connectivity is unavailable, utilizing a unique approach to message relaying through device name manipulation and intermediary nodes.
