A small, portable wireless router combined with a wideband, wearable antenna supports a local wireless network created on the move for exchanging information between multiple personnel spread over a useful geographic area. Multiple information sources of different types, such as cameras and GPS, can use the network to send information feeds to mobile users with interface devices such as smartphones that can deliver multiple feeds at the same time to the user. Devices connected to other networks, such as information processing devices at fixed operating bases, can deliver information feeds to the network.
